I guess you can have it all.

Saw this tonight at our local Wally World campground.

Mind you, didn't catch the make of the TC, but appears this person has all their toys along for the road.

    I call those hillbilly toy haulers around here, nothing wrong with them, a lot of guys use them to haul there Jeeps or other off road trucks to off road rides a half dozen or so times of year.

    My wife loads and unloads our TC just fine

    The vehicle C.G. is not affected.

    true

    The vehicle license tax rate is lower.

    TCs are cargo and no Fee in CA, the trailer you register

    You have your own private dock at the lake.

    Trailer floats?

    You do not run the risk of gas, oil fumes inside your camper.

    Shall I go on?

    I wonder why some do that, your carrying/ towing more weight with a goose-neck trailer and the camper in it instead of the bed of the truck. Gooseneck trailers weigh a lot more than a 16 or 18 foot flatbed. Just sayin.

    Oh yes, agree. It is just this to me was just a tad bit unusual.

    No kayaks or boat things on the roof, no bicycles, no windsurfer or paddleboard? He's got lots of room there for more toys.
