Bringing Mans Best Friend
We're still in the planning stages of our next RV and I'm trying to come up with the perfect plan for bringing our 100 pound german shepherd along. We've got one child on the way and another in our plans. This doesn't leave much room in the back seat of a ram 2500. What is the best way to bring a dog along for the fun? I've thought of a topper but I really don't like the look of them so I'm looking for an alternative. TIA3.1KViews0likes15CommentsRe: WDH compared to 5th Wheel
So what I'm gathering from you experts is that if the TT is set up correctly with the TV there shouldn't be any problems. We don't plan on going cross country by any means but some trips to the Black Hills of SD and maybe some Montana mountains are in the future.521Views0likes0CommentsRe: WDH compared to 5th Wheel
Sorry for the lack of info guys. We're looking at around a 35 foot TT about 8k pounds dry weight. There are a few different ones we're looking at so its hard to give an exact tongue weight. TV will be a ram 2500 with the 6.4 hemi so weight shouldn't really be an issue.120Views0likes0CommentsWDH compared to 5th Wheel
The wife and I are looking at buying our first camper. We've found a few floorplans in our price range, some TT's and some 5ers. I'm aware that each has their pros and cons. I actually really like the thought of keeping my truck bed available for camping gear so the TT is appealing. What I'm wondering though, does a WDH make it that much easier to control a TT or is the 5th wheel just unbeatable as far as stability is concerned? I've read a ton of reviews saying the 5th wheel is the best blah blah blah and I guess I'm really just looking for some 100% honest opinions. TIA4.1KViews0likes18CommentsRe: RV pad Question?
The space has our garage on one side and neighbors yard on the other. No fence issues. Haven't talked to my neighbor yet I guess. There is one slide on the camper we're getting and it is on the yard side so we will be able to fully extend it when parked. Thanks for the advice on the permits. I'll definitely look into that before starting anything.309Views0likes0CommentsRV pad Question?
The wife and I are going to be buying our first TT here soon and I'm still not 100% decided on where to park it during the off season. Storage space in our area costs about as much as a mortgage in most areas so we can't afford to rent a space anywhere. We have a space on the side of our garage that is 11.5 feet wide and about 50 feet long. This is big enough to fit the 8 foot wide trailer but width wise it may be a little tight. Has anyone built an RV storage pad and if so, would this width be ok?3.4KViews0likes12Comments
