Patio Option on TH

[cruz-in]

Hi All,

Jut sitting here on the patio of our Evergreen 32GS Toyhauler,,,watching the sunset, temps in the 70s...beautiful Arizona evening...

IMHO, using the ramp as a patio is pure genius...wish I could shake the hand of the designer who thought of it...wife insisted on this option and I am glad she did....

we have been doing this for years in our camp groups toyhaulers with some jack stands and blocks. Course we were't as fancy as they are now with the rails/steps etc...

I contacted Lippert Components today about their patio system and they would not even give me a price quote as a consumer. They said they do/will not provide any part numbers or pricing unless I am an authorized dealer/installer.

Same with Keystone. They would not provide pricing details on their Fast Track patio system, and whe I said my dealer had claimed to make several price inquiries, she asked if I wanted another dealer contact.

Finally got an answer from Keystone. No thanks. $3943 for the "upgraded" ramp door, $1292 for the kit, plus installation cost.

We used our patio all the time last season. Nothing better than sitting out there with coffee in the morning!

Ours came with the patio door option. I couldn't imagine having one without this. It eliminates the need to close the rear deck ( which we use a lot) if too hot or cold and creates a full window in rear.

I was just checking out info on your new rig and outdoor patios in general.
Maybe one day when I am more than just a weekend camper I will gravitate to an outdoor patio. I camp a lot but mostly weekends with a few extended trips when possible
Currently I see the patios as something else to set up and take down,just setting up my chair and cooler is my lazy man method to enjoy the outdoors.
I have reached a point in my camping where less is more.
Don't get me wrong I still carry and use lots of stuff, however I don't set it all up everytrip like I have done in the past
If I were able to camp for longer periods the outdoor patios may be more appealing option.
But for now I 'll just enjoy the thought of you chilling out on the patio ramp enjoying the Arizona sunset,while I hunker down in single digit temps on the east coast happy to have survived last nights icey drive around the beltway.

LOL oh Lantly, the "beltway" now that brings back memories of working for a living.....

Interesting thing about the patio option, it only takes a few minutes (like 2) to setup...lower the ramp, flip up the rails and set the chairs on it...that is one of the reasons we like it so much...

We have the Add A Room for ours and use it at the beach when we have beach front and back in. We actually use the canopy and cables for the ramp. The room we used just once just because of the hassle of in stalling it.

Trying to get a price on the Fuzion Fast Track Patio for the new Impact I just bought. Anyone have any experience with them?

[ksss]

I had one on our 2010 Fuzion Touring Edition II, we set it up twice mostly just a PINTA. We did not get one on the 2013, it was better but not great. However I see the latest Fuzion's have a pretty slick set up with the railing that folds up in one piece. Looks to be a much more efficient set up. The next time we upgrade we will absolutely check that box.

I like this after market kit but probably not the price...I plan on comming up with something similar... My biggest problem with a patio is the security should you want to leave. I would not feel comfortable leaving the rig open...

My next rig must have the patio kit. Absolutely love the idea.

PS - threads like this without pictures can get you banned for life...something about being torture to those of us stuck in winter.

Glad you like it. Me, I don't get it.

Does that come with a rear awning? how do the patio rails secure to the ramp? PS that is a great trailer..

Howdy!

X2 on that. We use the one on our Cyclone 4000 as much as we can.
