We started out in a Starcraft Galaxy 24. King and queen bed, real fridge, forced heat, hot water, recirc toilet, and shower. Put all that in a real trailer and my 85' S-10 couldn't have pulled it, and I obviously wouldn't have been able to store it in the garage.
Don't confuse a PUP with anything else. Just because use the price points are blurring doesn't mean you automatically fall into the next category up, because they are not the same regardless of price.
You have a good point about having a vehicle that's able to pull a heavier TT. There are many considerations other than the price of the TT vs PUP.
My husband's truck could pull a TT. I've read comments where people question why someone would have such a big truck while their pulling a PUP. We always wonder why others feel we should buy a 2nd truck just to pull our PUP for the few times a year we use it. We prefer to save the money for the kids' college education and for retirement. Or, maybe they feel dh should buy a truck for the couples times a year we use the PUP and get the smallest one possible for that instead of buying the truck he wants to drive every day.
