I am new to the Forum and want to introduce myself. I recently retired and am a widower, having two dogs. By the end of October 2020 I will vacate my apartment and move into the Outlaw for the time being. As I enjoy making and fixing things, I turned part of the garage into a workshop/office. I had many tools as a past homeowner and working in the machine tool business. In 2018 I chose the Outlaw because of the exceptional payload capacity of 5,500 lbs. Camping World custom installed the Washer/Dryer stack with Thor's assistance. After installing the workbench and tool chests, filling every drawer with tools and hardware, load all the camping gear collected over the years, filled all 3 tanks (water, fuel and propane) I weight it, having my Honda Fit in tow on the dolly. GVWR came in at 23,340 lbs., with 2,660 lbs. spare payload capacity. The GCVWR was 26,560 lbs., with 3,540 lbs. to spare. The total length of the rig measured 58 ft. Years of planning confirmed: The Outlaw is one of it's kind at a reasonable price value! Nothing is perfect, but I can fix most everything on the go.

I drive a Toy Hauler so that I have room for all of the tools that I need to drive a Toy Hauler. Love it! Safe and joyful travels.

I also meant to mention that after installing the tune file, the Outlaw drove a much more quietly, feels more competent. What a difference!
