I would say you actually have lots of options. I am especially if used a consideration is. Take your time try everything out when you are looking. Get in the shower sit on the toilet etc. Make sure it fits you. Like mentioned earlier in a hard sided trailer a small to medium sized SUV will really limit what you can tow safely. Towing a trailer is all about how much payload the vehicle you are going to tow with. You will add several hundred pounds of weight when you start loading it with bedding, pots and pans, dishes food etc.
Also if you can find a RV show go look at several models in a setting where you can compare many different things.
Just a couple more questions for you. Are you looking for long trips or mainly weekend trips?
Is 21' just an arbitrary number or is there a reason that you picked 21'?
Are you looking for a TV (tow vehicle) now or do you already have one?
Good luck, welcome aboard and happy hunting.
Hi,
I just picked 21',thinking it might be within in the range of 3500 lbs towing limit
I will probably upgrade my truck to a f150 type 5.0/302 soon, but currently have a 3.0 V-6 Ranger....I haven't checked the gross it can pull but I think for the time being I need to downgrade my TT expectations to 3500 gross towing, ( if I plan on the Edge also towing...The DW has the Edge...I would like both vehicles to be able to tow the same TT, I know the Edge will limit this scheme with its total 3500 but will have to do until the eventual F-150.
