Best travel trailer for 6ft 7in tall person

Hi aussie fonz
We are also Australian who have done and are doing what you are planning. While we are not as tall as your OH our son (6'5") stayed with us for a while in our fifth wheel and was quite comfortable except when he was showering and had to stand with his head in the skylight! fun to see!!
We have a bedroom slide which enables us to have a full queen (not an rv queen) which would be way too short for your OH. Unless he sleeps curled up all the time a king size would be the best bet for you.
I can't help with the ceiling heights in travel trailers but I know there are some manufacturers who do make TT's with higher ceilings.
Our rig is currently stored in Phoenix after two x 12 month trips around the states. We will be returning some time soon for another trip.
Good luck with your plans and you can always PM me if you want to ask any questions.
It is possible to get a 12 month entry permit but it is not always as easy as just asking at the entry point. So just be aware.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts....this gives me more research to do.

watch the bed lengths, rv beds are shorter then standard house beds.

I am 6'7" as well and went with the KingSport 265BHS. It has 6'9" ceiling height, just watch out for doorways.:S

BTW, when you get here...welcome to the US and hope you enjoy your stay!

The Gold Coast is at the top of my short list for travel destinations...long time surfer.

Plenty of 80"+ interior height TT brands.

All Open Range brands
Jayco Jayflight and Eagle
Keystone has some brands that do
Heartland
Forest River
etc.

A 5th wheel is the best bet, but you'll still have problems standing up in the bedroom.

We have a Northridge (by Coachmen) fifth wheel. They and their sister unit (the more upscale Brookstone) are quite tall inside. I'm 6'5", and was quite happy to discover that both the Northridge and Brookstone units have slideouts with 6'7" interior height. I've never found any other unit with slideouts that I can stand up inside.

There are certain TT that have 7' ceilings. I think the Travel Star by Starcraft does. And I think the Sunset Trail Reserve by Crossroads does.

You would be MUCH better off going with a fifth wheel setup. Often times, you can find a decent used fifth wheel on craigslist for low to mid twenties, and sometimes they are even paired with a good TV.

Good luck!

Is there no possibility of buying a 5th wheel?
