Hello from michigan!
I'm tim from Michigan and my gf and I had a 34' foot cardinal Tt we just sold and are currently looking for a new toyhauler. If anyone has any good suggestions on these, feel free to chime in! I'm pretty picky and looking for one over 30' and I like the layouts and storage of fuzions. We are hauling two Harley's! Great to meet you all!

Given the huge number of TH's out there I do not envy you any.
Do you want a FW or a tongue pull?
Oh, welcome to FRF......

I'm going to get a bumper pull. I already have a Hensley hitch so I think I'll stick to that style. There is a ton out there and I've been able to walk through a handful. Tough deciding which one I want!

I'm looking new. If I ran across a great deal and good trailer I may consider it. This trailer I sold was used when I bought it and was a great starter trailer to learn on and fix things.

You have a long row to hoe, upside is winter is here so prices should drop some and then there is year end sales.

Got that from the local camp world twice, have not been back.
I'd drive 475 miles out of my way before I set foot on their lot again.

I hear ya there! One salesman I liked but he wasn't there when I went back. One thing I hate is when I have to tell salesman about their product! There's a dealership three hours away that I could get the same toy hauler 6000 less....

For 2000.00 an hour I'd make that drive.

General trailer was horrible...too pushy..gave me 3 different prices on a trailer..was starting on a 4th...I asked for bottom line...then went elsewhere...wanted to buy from H&W -Belleville, probabily the most honest but they didn't have one we liked at the time..ended up at Vicars...not sure about Westland camping..some one on this forum had bought a TT there ..they could prob. tell you more about them

Trade Winds RV in Clio is where we got ours. Don't know if they will have what you're looking for, but I was happy with the deal and service after the sale.

Just do not buy from Tradewinds RV, once they get the sale the service is poor, I had to send mine to the factory to finally get it fixed right.
