    How long of a trailer would be your max for this...

    I live in NJ. I can't get a parking spot for anything for $30 a month. If I could I would not even consider any other options. I have a neighbor that has probably a 28-30 foot class C. It has a couple of slide outs so has to be around that size. They are able to park it in their driveway, BUT...

    How long of a trailer would be your max for this...

    There has to be a happy medium of what I should be looking for. Most of the time the cars are only on one side of the street. For the most part, cars don't park in front of our house for instance. Over the years we have had times when no one parked on the road, now there are several people that do.

    How long of a trailer would be your max for this...

    Hubby and I are considering getting a trailer. I have been thinking about this for about a year now and one thing that I think I need to think of is the narrowness of our street where we live. The street is about 28 feet wide. Cars typically park on both sides of the road. We have a single car...

    Would this be safe?

    A pop up wouldn't solve one of our problems. That is our dog refuses to go camping. He HATES it. Not just a little either, he HATES it. In a trailer that has walls and not a tent, he could sit on a couch, not hear every little thing, be in AC, and sleep. That is what he loves to do. Think of him...

    Would this be safe?

    I had Ford Escort that was heavily abused before I got it. I will give you that, but then I went to drive it on a move from New York state to Florida and the darn thing refused to leave New Jersey... yeah not optimal. My mother had a fancy Camero that she got brand new in 1985 and I still have...

    Would this be safe?

    Does the trailer weight assume full tanks? We would likely have maybe a few gallons in the potable water tank and that is it. The tanks on this are 11 gallons fresh, 19 gallons grey, and 6 gallons black. We don't plan on camping off grid for more then a night. Does this make a difference in...

    Would this be safe?

    Finally found the GCWR! 8410lbs I have asked my 7 year old if he would mind sleeping on a cot (right now he sleeps on the floor of our tent) and he said yes. My thought is as my boys get older they will want to sleep AWAY from mommy and daddy and not with them. They are very close so I would...

    Would this be safe?

    My hubby and want to get a trailer for our family. We are thinking of doing one of 2 options. 1. Purchasing a tow vehicle (which would turn into a going to work vehicle when we are not camping) and then a trailer. 2. This is my question area. I see Little Guy makes a trailer that is...

    Please explain sway control to me..

    No that isn't the one I was thinking of. I am thinking of this 5er http://www.keystonerv.com/sprinter-wide-body/ (Sprinter Wide Body 274 FWBHS). That is interesting about the sway on a TT. I am an adventurous driver (hey I live in Jersey!) but I am not sure I am THAT adventurous! Anyone know...

    Please explain sway control to me..

    Right now what we are leaning to is a TT. Though when the time comes it could end up being a 5er. It really depends on what is out there when the time comes. There is only 1 5er that I like at the moment, that fits all of our needs. It is only 31 feet long. Hard to believe. There are several TT...

    Please explain sway control to me..

    I am thinking that I am headed to a 250 truck. We seem to be gravitating to trailers with a rear bunkhouse and those are 34-36 feet long. ? I figure we are getting a Ford because my in-laws love Ford. I saw that Ford has a new Super Duty truck coming out. The video shows the hitch and how it...

    Campground Pet Day Care?

    Please do this! If not you then whomever who reads this. We are currently tent campers but we can't take our dog with us because 1) we like to do things that are not always dog friendly, and 2) he HATES camping. Seriously, I am pretty sure he thinks it is torture. So we have to board him when we...

    Saftey

    Get a central alarm system and maybe a product like Ring. Ring is a doorbell that has a camera. The camera uses your wifi and calls your cell phone so you can see the person, but they can't see you. You can tell them you are home even when you are not. Odds are a thief would go to the next house...

    Do these numbers work?

    So what I am seeing you all say is for an SUV I should be more in the 25 foot range right? For the trailer?

    Do these numbers work?

    Wheel base of 123.2 inches. I am looking at pairing a Nissan Armada 4X4 SL (with tow package and class IV ball and weight distributing hitch), with a Aerolite 315BHSS.
