toy hauler info
 
I'm looking for a quality toy hauler that can haul 4 full size quads. 5th wheel or tt or goose neck with living quarters. Does anyone have any suggestions? Looking for good quality and not overly heavy. Any help is appreciated...

Good quality and light weight, hauling 4 quads, that´s not simple. How long are your quads? I think you need at least 12 feet of space, though 14 would be better. What I would do first, line all the quads up and see how wide and long the garage needs to be. Do you want a separate garage or will you be unloading when you arrive at your spot to get back some of your living space? If so you might get away with a lighter and shorter trailer. How many people will be living in that toy hauler?

There are a lot of high quality units out there. Take a look at the toy hauler forum at rv.net, a lot of helpful information there. Take your time to read a lot over there. But it doesn´t mean you should quit posting here as there´s a wealth of information from TH owner´s over here either ;)

Thanks for the input guys, I have been looking a lot online was just wondering what other people opinion was. I really would like the goose neck toy hauler with living buy millinium trailers www.milltralers.com. But the wife wants bigger living quarters. Anyhow we are going to look at some this weekend so I will keep Northernlights info in mind and maybe I can look at one like rebals, that looks to be a nice one....

I found what I was looking for. Its a Balbowa made by Mirage. Has all the bells and whistles and the price was way better that any of the 5th wheels I was looking at. Its about 8900 lbs dry and I can put all of my quads in no problem....

Nice!!!!! That's the style that I'm looking for and would love to see some inside pics and possibly where you got it...and maybe a price???????

I was looking at Playmor but they are kind of hard to find in my neck of the woods and the dealers really like them if you know what I mean.

Looks like the bed weight is a little high.
