Wanting to be a RV owner....
Hello, We usually rent RV's either onsite delivery or drive to our destination but we might be ready to purchase (used probably). We have a Harley, rzr4 & two sea doo's [moderator edit]  I am weighing the options of a class A toy hauler (outlaw, bounty hauler, etc..) or a 5th wheel. We only have a 1500 Avalanche to tow so we would have to upgrade that truck if we go 5th wheel. I know we will see a lot of opinions, but that is who we are & where we stand. excited to become an owner.

Howdy from SC and welcome to the forums. If your truck is in good shape why get rid of it to buy a newer truck, plus a 5th wheel? The price of a good MH will be about the same plus you can always pull a trailer behind the MH for even more toys. Just my opinion. But anywho, glad you found us!
