        <![CDATA[ We were thinking of upgrading to a different camper ... then got the urge to look at a toy hauler.  Well .... we ended up purchasing a 26' KZ with the back end that folds down, the power bed raises up, and you drive the bike right in.  I got the dealer to install a removable wheel-chock before I picked it up which required dropping one of the tanks that mounts underneath so he could get the proper washers on the bottom side.  I'm glad I had him do it ... I might have drilled right through the... ]]>

Rich, congratulations on your purchase.  The toyhaulers draw me in like a magnet whenever I get within 100 yards of one.  It's kind of funny.  The toyhauler is pulling me in one direction and my wife is pulling me in the... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I recently sold my class A motorhome. It was a 1997 30' Rexhall Vision wide body.<br>
Make sure you concider all the ramifications of having one of those things. Aside from the expense of operation, I had to pay to store mine. That thing was bleeding me dry!!<br>
I have a 1991 model 19' RoadTrek. It is just the thing for two people and a motorcycle trailer.<br><br>

Looks and runs great. We're in negotiation with the dealership right now. We'll just have to wait and see if this is the one for us.

			<description><![CDATA[ Nice rig , Rich. I saw one similar to it at the Cycle World International MC show in Atlanta last March. That one was only 16ft long by 7ft wide and only had a toilet in the nose, and the 2 beds you have on each side. The beds on each side doubled as sofas once the bike was out. I can see  that yours also has a kitchen-ette up front with the extra 10 feet. I like it.<br><br>

But the short wheelbase and higer center of gravity requires the load-leveling hitch to keep it stable on the road.    Otherwize it wags it's tail and becomes a white-knuckle towing experience.  We towed it home from a few hours away just fine.  We haven't made the first real camping/riding trip yet.  We'll probably pull it to the Honda Homecoming in Ohio in July.<br><br>
