    Just kidding about Branson.
    If you go in the summer months, there are tons of kids there. Especially around Silver Dollar City.
    If you go after school has started though, the average age increases quite a bit.

    Lots of tour busses in there with lots of senior citizens. :rolleyes:

    I'm not that far away from joining that group, so no offense intended..

    Nice, which model is it? I was looking at Forest River trailers last year. Is it a hybred?

    Nope.....it has triple bunks in the back and a queen bed in the front.....the kitchen slides out......it's not a really deep slide out, which is why it's so light. We looked at the Rockwood Roo and really liked them, but this worked out better and we love it!!

    Great family unit. Just me and the wife, so we went with a hybrid but we couldn't get in one campground in Yellowstone because of bears.

    Bilstein 5100's on all four with some OME 885x's. Brute Force Fab front bumper. Warn winch. Koenig countersteers wrapped with duratracs.

    i have towed a 1990 cherokee with a flat bed trailer....only done it twice so far but it handled just fine....just gotta remember to take things slow and give ur self plenty of room (did it without trailer brakes too) but if i do it more il get a brake controller

    This is an awesome thread, and just what I needed. I'm thinking about buying a 16' Dune Sport Toy Hauler and was looking for some real-life stories to help me know what my baby can handle. I am now sufficiently reassured. :)

    Here's my most recent tow:

    [​IMG]

    My SV650S in the bed, brother's and sister-in-law's GSXR600s in the trailer; on our way to my first track day. More track days, plus camping with dirtbikes, will be way moar fun with the toybox.

    Thanks for sharing everyone!

    What kind of boat is that? Buddy of mine has an 03 or 04 STV fully done up, He drives a FORD, but hauls a big 24' race trailer with it. Nice ride and boat though.
