That's why I have a cab-over camper, no problems towing anything, still got a nice RV to hide in.
Got a older chevy chassis class C motorhome too, that gives you towing capability too. SOME people really like dragging monster trailers, but it's kinda limiting in my view..........But I just can't stay off the water, too many fish to catch out there.

I hit my brother up for a deal. If we got a camper, to have him pull the boat, and I'd pull the camper. best of both worlds! But, the wife says one or the other, and I really don't have the room for both, anyway.

Yeah, I'd get a good sized one. Big enough for us and the kids.

That's right but not too big for the truck, we need to be able to stop it safely

I'm back, but not happy......The VA sucks! I wouldn't go to them for a hangnail. How the hell can they not send the Morphine to a VET that's in heavy pain, and has been getting it for YEARS! Rob's been without it since Thursday, and they said today they "forgot" to send it last week. Now he has to wait till Tue or Wed? It's a damn disgrace......
