Re: Options for a trailer with a Honda Pilot as TV.
Yes, we do have the 4WD on our Pilot. My thoughts were to not exceed a GVWR of 3500lbs giving us 1000lbs wiggle room. Although a lot of the pups I've been looking at are less than that. Bathroom doesn't have to be extensive, really just don't want to have to schlep up to the comfort stations at 2am anymore. I NEVER wake up during the night at home, but I always do when we camp LOL. I want to enjoy a couple drinks around the fire without worrying about it anymore. I'm perfectly fine using the comfort stations during the day. It would be nice to get a floorplan that has at least a little storage space for some essentials that we use every trip so we don't have to pack everything up for each trip. Looking to streamline the process so quick get-aways seem more attractive. My oldest is entering her sophomore year...time is passing quickly and family trips will get harder and harder so I want to do it now while we can. I really appreciate everyone taking the time to answer my questions. I am so happy to have found this forum. I am new to the idea of towing and I don't want to make a stupid mistake that will hurt someone. You guys have been very helpful.1.1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Options for a trailer with a Honda Pilot as TV.
Thanks for all the info!!! I've got a great place to start! My family includes myself, dh, and 3 teenage girls. We try not to pack too much when we camp, it's supposed to be about getting away from it all so we don't want to bring it all with us :) Usually we will be camping in established campgrounds with at least water and electric. Most of the time we camp with friends who are all still tent camping we'd want to be close to their sites.1.1KViews0likes0CommentsOptions for a trailer with a Honda Pilot as TV.
Hello, I am new to this forum and I am just starting to do some research into buying a camper of some sort. DH and I have tent camped for the past 20 years. As I approach age 50, I'm realizing I want to continue with camping life but maybe make it a little easier on myself. We currently own a Honda Pilot with a tow rating of 4500lbs. While I want some conveniences, indoor kitchen, beds off the ground, and a bathroom/shower, I am not willing to risk my family's safety to get it. Purchasing a larger TV is off the table right now. (don't want to have to increase our car payment or gas budget) Realistically, what should I be looking to purchase? I am hoping to be able to purchase something by next year. Any advice for me? Thanks!!!7.9KViews0likes28Comments
