5th wheel toy hauler wish list. Anything like this exist?
I currently have a 34' Laredo w/bunkhouse that is just about perfect for my family: Wife and I, plus 2 kids, aged 10 and 6. It has separate quarters for the kids, an outdoor kitchen and ample living space, all at 8900 lbs dry. I can pull it with my Diesel F350 with zero problems. That said, the one thing it does lack is a suitable garage. We currently race BMX so hauling the bikes and gear around is possible, just not ideal. However, I am looking to get the kids dirtbikes soon and would hate to not be able to camp when we go riding. A Toy Hauler is definitely in our future, but I have no desire to lug around a 15,000 lb, 42 ' behemoth just so I can take 600lbs of dirtbikes with us. The current crop of Toy Haulers definitely have a purpose, but are way overkill for most people's needs. Mine for sure. I just want a rig like the one I have, with a small sealed garage. The closest thing I have found to what I am after would be the Grand Design Momentum 376TH. It has the rear master with a small garage placed under the queen bed. Pretty smart way to do just what I am after. The only problem with this particular one is that it lacks a bedroom for the kids. In my frustration, I decided to spend some time (more time than I would like to admit) piecing together what I feel would be about the perfect rig for my needs. I have attached an image of what I came up with below... The overall length this is about 36', based on very crude measurements/guesses. The weight is a total crapshoot, but it definitely doesn't need to be heavy for what I need. The front bunkhouse is not complete either as I ran out of energy trying to create this imaginary RV, but as a whole, this is what I am after... - Small, sealed garage. I do not need access from inside and would prefer not to be able to. - bunkhouse - 1 1/2 baths - Dinette AND tri-fold couch. I can't stand the big 'party' couches. I am camping with my family. I'm not looking to party with my 6 year old. - I do not need an onboard generator. I have a garage that I can put my current generator in. - I do not need onboard gas. I have a garage with gas cans. Does anything like this exist? Am I the only person out there who feels this way? If you made it this far, I certainly appreciate it. Hoping for some insight. Thank you Steve4.1KViews0likes10Comments
