Congrats! If you haven't towed heavy with your truck yet, YOU'LL LOVE IT! Not to mention the camping and being able to carry your toys with you.

I have the Trailrider 257....same as a Rampage, just different name (too close to another Rampage dealer, so they change the name). I got the front bath.

I put two 250's, my 450 and my son's 40 quads in it and still have room for another full size quad if I put the 40 up front.

Carries lots of water, came loaded and so far nothing major has broken in the year I've had it.....

I have a 21' rampage with the front bath, side kitchen, and 2 electric rear bunks. Wanted a 23-26 BP with the front bed, to hide from the kids when making noise.
The one that we got had issues, water pipes leaked here and there, not a big deal. And a laundry list of misc total ******** that should have never happened, like the generator fuel line pinched, gen not bolted down. Multiple lines underneath were hanging. Brake wires were in jepardy of being smashed by the bump stop. ( I only knew to look there due to a friends same trailer having it smashed by the bumpstop while comming down a hill on the Oregon coast).

I did a axle flip kit by dexter axle, the axles in the OEM set-up would bang into the 2 water tanks. Definately NFG.

Remember that RV mfg's put the time and effort in what shows, not in what was hidden.

I am a perfection type person and I fully expected to do a little preventative checking pre first trip. **** glad I did. I didn't expect the dealer to fix some of my issues to my standards, so I saved myself the headache.

All in all a decent trailer so far. Go used for your first few years till you know exactly what you want. Your mind will change with use.

Must haves:
Generator
Large water capacity
Fuel station
Seperate bathroom


God luck!
