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!!
Very happy to have found your forum. I've been looking for a toy hauler for over a year now and it seems from reviews there are very few good units out there.
I realize most people who write reviews have had negative experiences, and most people who are happy with there purchase generally won't write anything.
This leaves me reeding almost nothing but nightmare reviews about almost every brand out there.
I'm hoping I can get some positive reviews on a few more models from your members who have had a few good years with their trailers.
The Northwood Desert Fox 21SW and the Holiday Rambler 230FK Black Diamond are two units that seem to be very well built but finding a used one anywhere near me has proven impossible. I have a 2014 F-150 3.5 L Ecoboost with a 11,100lb. tow capacity and a Teryx4 to load into the trailer, which measures 126" long, 62" wide and 80" tall. I have found that most models over ten years old do not have a high enough clearance for my 80" hight.
I don't think you're being ignored, Leo. This forum leans toward full-timers and most of us here have probably not had much exposure to something as small and light as the units you're asking about - especially in the toy hauler category. You might find other forums more helpful in your area of interest.

Also look to "brand name" forums to gain information and insight. Most brand names have some kind of forum available out there where one can register and ask their own questions of those that own those rigs. I did the same thing almost 10 years ago to gather information both fifth wheels and motor homes.
In my case, I liked to ask the owners what problems they had and how they resolved them. I'd also ask them that if they were going to purchase a new RV again, would they choose the same brand name/model or would they change. Even some that had problems with their rigs admitted that if they were buying new again, the would go with the same brand/model.
Good luck.
Terry
