Hello!
My husband and I lost our house to a fire and are a planning to live in a travel trailer for the next 6 months to a year and traveling south to find where we would like to move to while it is being repaired by our insurance. We have a 3 year old and 5 year old so are loving the bunk house travel trailers with the outside kitchen and the outdoor bathroom door to the trailer. Could someone please give me their opinions on a brands from the few of the models we've picked out? We were told a half ton truck would be sufficient, but I've also read online that that's something that dealers say to get you to buy their trailers and it'll still be very hard? I was thinking of getting an f150 or ram 1500? Opinions on trucks would be awesome as well. I plan on picking out the travel trailer, buying the truck I need for towing, then buying the trailer so I can actually haul it.
I think the jayco jay flight 32bhds is ideal, but is maybe 1-2k more and it's heavier (7600 lbs and gvw 9975) but I've read it's made better? I haven't seen one of those in person, but I did see and put a refundable $500 deposit on a keystone 3220bh ($25000 +850 destination charge + ttl) which weighs 6040 lbs and give 8000 lbs. I have until Thursday morning to decide if I want to go with the keystone or not. But today I've also seen online 2016 forest river Wildwood 36BHBS that I could get for $20k (Ship Weight: 7,892 lbs. GVW: 10,880 lbs.) and 2016 Heritage Glen 312QBUD for $25k (weight 6,840 lbs. and GVW: 9,500 lbs). It's very confusing. If you could let me know if you have purchased one of these, how much you paid for it (if you don't mind), what you haul it with, or your opinions on the brand - I would so greatly appreciate it.
