Carrying all the toys

Hi. Okay so we moved up from a pop-up to a travel trailer and loving it! Now we want to bring three bikes and a paddle board and kayak. We have been bringing two trucks. Our Yukon which is the tow vehicle and a small pickup with the extras. Gas adds up- any suggestions on how to have everything on one? Thank you
  • Buy inflatable paddleboard and kayak they are not the plastic toys of the past. Light and fold up into a small package.

    Dont know what yearr yukon you have but the new ones run 8K towing..

    With that said what TT did you get? Whats your weights? This is important...

    If putting all people in yukon you may be at or over your weight rating... Again depends what you are towing and weights

    I can suggest a front bike carrier/reciever and some type of roof rack for the boats and that may be the answer... BUT!!!!!

    But you need to take the yukon to the scale fully loaded with people and cargo and full gas tank. Get truck weighed alone, truck trailer with WD hitch active, and truck trailer with out WD active... then we can guide you if you post those #'s

    Without that info all replies here are gussing and any advice you get may affect your saftey...
  • Bikes inside the trailer, kayak and paddleboard on top of the Yukon? When I had a small slide-in truck camper, we always loaded our 2 bikes in the camper.
