Toy Hauler? For extra room, but no toys to haul?

Another advantage if you dry camp is that toy haulers have larger tanks both fresh and holding tanks. These can be an advantage if you camp without hook ups. My brother bought a toy hauler just for the reason of the larger tanks, they couldn't live as a family of four with just 40 gallons of fresh water so he moved to toy hauler and now has 150 gallons of fresh.

We have had our toyhauler since May & love it Sliding glass door to the 12' garage 5 queen size beds (one is the U shaped dinettte) Down side it is heavy (gross 14.5K empty, dry weight around 10K) Without toys probably about 12K. It is a fiver 35.5'. We put a small frig in the back for drinks. Dogs & grown kids can have their own room. Don't rule out Pumas two 35' garage fiver models & out the door for under 30K.

OMG, these TH's are great. But big and heavy :) Like I said, probably will get a 350, but I'm still learning to tow/back my 24' HTT, so hopefully I can find a smaller/lighter version. Told the DW last night, might be the next big thing a HTH (Hybrid Toy Hauler)?????????

The DW and I have had our TH Raptor for about 5 months...we love it! We currently have no toys and the garage makes a perfect "den" and a great storage area while traveling. When we retire in few short years, this will be our home on the road!:B

You can use them like any other trailer, but the best part is you can haul something if you what to. Some haul small cars or boats, just about anything you can think of.

We use ours with and without toys, this pass New Years spent 4 days in it without toys.

My neighbor has a TH and no toys. He converted the area into an amazing office space with a pullout sofa for guests and there is a restoom so the guests have their own. I thought it was a great idea.

Now those are LITE. Too garage look, wifey wants something homey. She's still not sold on the idea, so I have to find the perfect one for HER!

Wife & I went with a TH as opposed to a TT. The TH is roomier plus I made a stand to attach to the back wall (easy to remove) for the big screen TV.

We have a Livin Lite VRV Hybrid Toyhauler.
We don't have any motor toys, but haul 6 bikes and lots of other sports gear, etc. when camping.
We LOVE the versatility. I personally love the fold-down tent sections, as we were previous tent campers but we just needed more room & cargo space. This way I have best of both.
You're smart to go for what your wife will like so she'll want to get out and use it alot! (I say that as a wife myself, but I'm the one more into camping versus my husband) I'm not into the "home-like" look when camping, so I can't give you any suggestions for toyhaulers to look at. What we did is go to RV shows, that way she can get in several different ones at once.
Good luck in your search!

I'm sold, just might take a year to find THE one. Thanks for all the ideas.
