Is a toad necessary with a small motor home?
My wife and I in the market for a class c (down grading) and we've begun to wonder if a toad will be needed if we buy a class c in the 24-26' length. If you have a 'c' in that length range, are you ...

You don't "need" a MH in the first place, so it's really do you "want" a toad.
Depends on where and how you travel.
- If you are going to be on the road driving every day anyway (say a 1 week trip planning on a new stop every night), a small 20-22ft class C (about the same size as a conversion van), not a ton to be gained by dragging a toad along.
- If you are doing a 3 month trip and expect 1-2 campsites per week with a couple of 1-2 week stops, the convenience of not having to pack up makes a toad a valuable addition.
Especially for longer trips, sometimes it's nice to have a little alone time (we've been traveling pretty much full time since 2007). With a toad, one of you can head out and do some grocery shopping or other task, while the other one stays behind. Without a toad, you are both going or both staying.
