Smaller 5th Wheel Toy Hauler

[tmphoto]

Looking for a 5th Wheel Toy Hauler in the 35' range. I have a 42' model now and it is just too big for many of the places we like to go. Would prefer a 10' garage with lift bed in the back and separate living area from the garage. The Voltage 3005 is a good example of what I am looking for but are pretty expensive. Any other models out there that fit this bill?

Slides are always nice when they're out---a no-brainer . . . as long as you can get them in when you're ready to leave. Some folks pop their slides at every stop. For those who've had to deal with serious slide issues (especially while on the road), that kind of use, wear, and tear, gets worrisome.

Before purchase, make sure you walk through your unit with all the slides in. On some rigs you can't access certain appliances, even the bathroom with the slide in. For some it's not an issue, for others it could be a deal breaker.

Garage area slides (on toy haulers that do not have a seperate garage) can significantly reduce your garage width when they're in. Make sure you can get your current and future toys in with the slide in.

Nothing wrong with a big hauler.
You just gotta know how to maneuver them and plan ahead.

I've gotten my hauler in some tight spots.
Sure, it may take 3 attempts, but I get it.
Just gotta know your truck and trailer.

I'll be looking for something similar in another year or so. I generally like the Triton 2951 but not sure about the quality. I really want a sep garage but realistically need as much cargo space as possible because i don't know what my kid will be into ( Quads , motocross, etc..) down the road and I don't want to have to upgrade. 35' is about my limit due to storage constraints.

Yep, same here, the 40+ foot Toy Haulers seem like a great idea until you actually have to back one down a road because you cannot make a turn at the Bass Pro Entrance day after Christmas 😉 Have been some really tough spots at campgrounds and forget fuel at anything short of a truck stop. Will miss the separate garage and fancy recliners but looking forward to the mobility freedom. Also really like the fact that the Boost does not have any slides. I know they are cool and all but just one more item to deal with.

Those are really nice. Was on my A list. I finally settled on a XLR Boost 33RZR16 because I located a really good deal on one. Did not have the separate garage but met all of my other criteria and the price was right. Picking up Saturday. Enjoy your Sporster, very nice units for sure.

The internet is your best friend for things like that. At the top of the toy hauler listing is a sticky that lists nearly all toy haulers made. Just start at the top and work your way down the list, just takes a few minutes on each one to glance at their floorplans to see if one grabs your attention...might even find several you like.

The internet is a twisted black hole of tangled knowledge but you Sir, are my Friend! I did not notice this excellent sticky thread. Much appreciated.

The Keystone Impact 311 might fit what you want. 10' garage and 35 feet. It falls in line, price wise, between the Triton that Wild Card mentions, and the Voltage you're looking at.

We love our 351, it's basically the same as the 311, only with a 12'6" garage and 38' long. Only difference I can tell in the plan is that the Impact bathroom has a residential shower and more counterspace, whereas the Voltage has a corner shower with corner sink thing.

Look at the Voltage Triton line.
