Default Suggestions for Toy Hauler wanted

Here's my dilema- we have a Classic Glide and a Sportster trike. Most toy haulers are designed for 2 bikes side by side. I need to put the dresser in front of the trike.

I'm looking for suggestions on a nice non-fifth wheel 30-34 footer that has enough clear space to get the bike and trike nose to tail.

But not too spartan. The work and play models seem to be awfully plain.

I'm pulling it with a HD2500 gasser so it shouldn't go over 10k pounds with the 2 bikes in it.

Any suggestions?

I work at a Toyota dealer in Jacksonville. They traded in a Raptor toy hauler 3 weeks ago that does not require a fifth wheel at least I think. Give Coggin Toyota used cars a call they will know more about it than I will. Tell them Chris R in service gave you the heads up on it.

have a garage in mine but have looked around alot and you should look at the Wolf pack , some of them are open all the way through , but if you have not had a camper , my advise is look around alot cause as soon as you buy one you will find one you like alot more , look for storage space and counter tops , good luck

Since you are in Florida (trailer capitol) have you thought about buying a shell and doing it the way you want? I know a couple of people that have done that in Elkhardt Ind. They did trailers that worked for them at a reasonable price. One was plush, the other kind of medium. It's at least another option. Show us what you end up with.

I have a Balboa by Mirage. Mine is a front bedroom model but if you get the front bathroom model that opens the floorplan up. I like it because it is steel framed instead of wood and it is not really tall like some toy haulers. Has nice aluminum cabinets too. This is a picture of my shovel and my neighbors dyna in it. I would think you might want to put the trike in first for weight distribution. Not sure how much a trike weighs but I think mines is about 7000 lbs so it would probably put you close to 10000 lbs.

That's a fifth-wheel ...
