We had toys. I have a Weekend Warrior FS2500 and HAD 5 dirt bikes we used to haul around and ride. We pretty much got outa dirt bikes and into horses, but decided to keep the Toy Hauler for its room and we also put two fold up recliners in the rear area for the wife and I to relax. We love the room of the hauler.

We haven't put toys in ours yet and have camped once a week for the past 2 months. When we go to the beach about 1/2 of the trailers parked are TH. I was just joking the other day that we have had so much fun and haven't even used it for the purpose we bought it for.

No toys here either unless you count kid's bicycles . Wife and I just like the floorplan. Bunk beds are much bigger and easier to load.

Long trips we bring the touring bikes and use them once we get there, maybe be gone 1 or 2 days. We use it to camp with as well no toys. I added cabinets, pulled the bench seats and replace with 1 double leaf table and 2 chairs. It adds lots of walk space, then I got rid of the couch and added 2 recliners and have 2 gliders as well. Lots of space once the bikes are out.

We'll hopefully be upgrading to a TH in the next few months, but no plans to buy any toys at this point. Want a TH because of the higher ceilings, more room and dual queen beds. We feel they're a better layout for the family than the bunk models.

No toys in the traditional sense. But, we do use the mid-space storage for two dog crates in transit (no response from the safety police needed), and the rear space for four mountain bikes.

When stopped, the bikes go outside and get locked with the ToyLok, the dogs are moved to the back (and eventually the XTend-A-Room on the ramp when I put it together,) and the bunks are put down for the kids.

Bought it for space and layout, and think we'll remain toyless.

I haul this when I get the chance to combine the two on a vacation. Other than that I don't have any "toys".


Getting there is half the fun....

well as my signature says we bought ours to haul the Harley's with. We are going to live full time in the TH when i return from Iraq we are going to semi retire in the trailer and travel and work in one place a while so we are bringing the Scoots so we can ride while there which is the reason to travel so we can ride all over the country and check it out. I drove a truck coast to coast for 14 years so been just about every where but never had time to explore so now its that time to explore the US on 2 wheels while living in the TH while we are doing it.
