Thanks everyone. After reading all of this, I think we will stick with a PUP. I looked at my owner's manual again and it says there is a towing limit of 3,050# when you have five passengers. Of course, that's assuming everyone weighs 150# and my kids certainly don't, but throw in some car seats and all their stuff and maybe we're there.
I had not thought about the height of the trailer and gas mileage. A scamp sounds nice and I did find an RPod on Craigslist, but I don't think any of them would sleep a family of 5 comfortably.IdaD wrote:
Then when you get to the campsite your wife and kids are free to get in the trailer immediately to start cooking dinner or get their toys out or whatever while you disconnect, drop the stabliizers, and etc.
I suppose the one downside to not getting a trailer is that my *husband* can't get inside immediately to start cooking my dinner. ;)
Wonderful!
Here is an inside shot of our PUP...lots of room and our trailer has a GROSS weight under 3,000 lbs!
I do a lot of the cooking too, our PUP has an outside grill and I will be bringing my Coleman high stand and Coleman stove so we can do ALL the cooking outside. Good luck in your shopping.
Go visit a few dealers with PUP's and when you decide what you want...do not compromise, stick to your guns and the layout you want will POP up :).
Thanks!
