Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

We are looking at getting a product called a Idaho Tote to haul our 2 bikes.  It is considered an extension to the 5ver therefore I don't need to worry about double tow laws.  To me it seams the way to go but it is a bit pricey.  Close to 7K.  You can go to www.idahotote.com to see it.  My question is, has anyone every seen one of these or used one or know of someone that has?  Also any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Dave

Hey Dave,

         What kind of bikes are you hauling?? If they are under 1000#'s the Swivelwheel System will haul them for under 1/2 the price..

I have a Honda VTX 1300 and DW rides a VStar 650.  I talked with a guy from swivel wheel and he said they wouldn't handle 2 bikes.

Seen several swivel trailers being used and you can get a dual wheel type but don't know how much weight you want to carry. GBY...

Very very cool system. Gave me ideas beyond just being a toy hauler. There are a lot of people that travel around the country for work and bring their tools with them. This is a great way of deloading the RV weight and space and putting it on the Idaho Tote system
