Toy Hauler VS Travel Trailer
So my wife and I are looking into getting into seasonal camping to get the kids off the electronics and outside more during the summer. We are big into ATVs, we have trails that connect to our land, so we started looking initially at Toy Haulers. If we get one we are probably going to go with an ATC 28 foot with bedroom.
Anywho since we are looking at seasonal campsites with hookups I started thinking maybe a travel trailer would be better because it focuses 100% on living and not living + toy hauling.
My wife however still likes the Toy Hauler because when we are not at the site the ATVs can be parked inside out of the elements.
I did look at some Airstreams today and our budget is up to 80k but for the one I looked at that was 82k which includes setting up my truck I felt a bit underwhelmed by it. I realize an airstream will last almost forever vs say a Forest River and probably most of that price is how durable they are built.
I was hoping you guys could give me the upside and downside of Toy Hauler vs Travel Trailer and some suggestions on what a good Travel Trailer is with our budget being 80k.
We are not really interested in park or destination trailers. The main reason being if we want to try a different seasonal spot it will be easier to move the trailer.
We need to sleep 5 and would prefer trailers with dedicated beds as we don't want to have to take apart the dining room for the kids to sleep every night. With the ATC we just plan on using the tip out bed option and tossing down nice air mattresses in the cargo area.
My truck is a 2010 Toyota Tundra with the 5.7 and tow/haul package. It is rated to pull 10100 and is pre wired for brakes.
Thanks in advance.
