Toy hauler-fifth wheel or bump pull?

[diane.mccloskey]

I currently have a 26’ bumper pull trailer I would like to replace with a toy hauler. Any tips or pros and cons of replacing with a fifth wheel or staying with what I know and looking for a bumper pull?

IMHO a bumper pull toy hauler is unsafe. Too hard to get the weight distribution correct and easy to become lazy or comfortable with an unsafe weight distribution.

It only takes 1 time to realize this


If you can do it right now, get a heavy duty truck (1 ton dually) and a 5th wheel.

Too many manufacturers make a cheap entry level toy hauler to be pulled by a 3/4 ton and those easily create a very dangerous situation

What toys do you want to haul? Makes a big difference.
