Toy haulers are quite the popular RV model, largely thanks to their unique storage unit and comfortable passenger area. However, not all toy haulers are built equally, and there’s actually quite a bit of variation between different makes and models of this RV. To ensure you’re choosing the right toy hauler for your needs, we encourage you to check out our helpful buyer’s guide below.
Your Tow Vehicle
While toy haulers can come in a wide range of sizes, they tend to err on the larger side. As a result, most buyers will need some sort of heavy-duty towing vehicle to get their model out on the open road. To ensure you don’t damage your vehicle trying to tow a toy hauler that’s too large for it, be sure to check your car’s gross weight capabilities before you arrive at the dealership.
Your Passengers
Toy haulers tend to be split into two separate areas—the passenger space and the storage space. How much space is provided to each section of your toy hauler will vary based on the size of the rig, as well as the manufacturer. Some companies will choose to provide more passenger space to their consumers, while others will focus on providing better storage capabilities.
To figure out how much storage or passenger space you need in your rig, we recommend looking at your expected number of passengers per trip. Traveling in a large group? Then you’ll need an abundance of space in the living compartment to ensure everyone can travel comfortably.
Want to bring a few extra vehicles or some handy equipment along on your trip? Then you may have to sacrifice some of the extra space up front. As a result, you may have to cut down on the number of people traveling in your group or see if there’s a larger toy hauler model available.
