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!!

Bought a TT, now I need a PU!
Permalink  

Hi, my name is Jane, and I recently bought a 2012 Springdale 257 RLLS . Been aspiring for a while, due to high California rent... it's been, can't really afford to live here, and can't afford to move hmm. Currently, I'm living on the dealership lot on auto row, which is actually quite pleasant smile and now all I need is a truck!

I work full time on the weekends in social services, and during the week, I run an online business, which is 1/2 way to being sole self supporting, and then, completely portable. I'm very excited about the progress which I am making!

Here are pics of my Springdale, I'm sort of the arty type! My plan is, when I hit the road, to make the round of festivals and fairs to hawk my wares. I produce and sell self hypnosis and sound healing mP3s and CDs.

Jane

Just want to add to the welcome.Looks very nice indeed.If your plans don't include anything larger in the future any p/u designed to tow the weight of your loaded trailer should serve you well.Just be sure that you have a comfortable margin for power/breaking,etc.Enjoy your new home.

Unless you want a pickup you might find a van or SUV that can tow the TT. These would give you covered storage to haul your wares to places you are not camped.

Van with enough horsepower would be my choice.

Thanks for your replies... I had a pick up with a shell in mind, but a van is anothe option, and possibly less expensive, maybe. The Springdale is about 5,700 unloaded, and is supposed to be 1/2 ton towable.
