Pick up our new toy hauler today!

We have a 2 o'clock to pick up our new toy hauler in Missoula today. Missoula is about 85 miles south of us. We are getting a Vengeance 23FB Touring Edition. We wanted something fairly small but capable of hauling our Yamaha Rhino. This supposedly will do so. We are quite excited. I know for most on this site this is a small purchase, but for us it was quite a decision. We are both retired, but I still substitute teach a couple days a week. Hopefully, it will serve us well. We know nothing about trailers so hopefully we chose a decent one.

Congrats on your new trailer! I've found it's quite a learning experience, but so far, so good. I found my TH in Kalispell - small world.

Looked at one in Kalispell and it was very nice, but this one was just a little bigger. We live in Big Arm. How about you?

Just got home a few minutes ago. Takes a long time to go through paper work and the entire trailer. Plus we added vent covers and a weight distribution hitch with sway bars so that took extras time. I think those will be nice. Of course we had to buy other odds and ends that added up also.

Welcome & congratulations on the new TH. I wasn't familiar with that model, so went to Youtube to check it out. Really nice.

Like hdmtnrider said, we'll be looking forward to pics of TH & TV.

Congratulations on your new purchase. We love Montana and spend at least one week every year in Glacier.

We too just bought our first TT and as you said "it is quite a learning experience". Our first camping trip is March 31st and while rain is predicted, I'm still excited!

Congratulations again and happy camping!

Enjoy your new camper. You will find forum members have all different sizes of campers. The important thing is we all share a love of being outdoors! That is all that matters. Campers and RV'ers are a special group of people.

Congratulations. Welcome to FR. I was lurking here while owning another brand. Then I got active as we decided on and finally ordered our Sandstorm 250 TH. WE LOVE OURS and hope you enjoy yours as much.

Welcome.

Thanks for all the welcomes! Got it home last night. We like it a lot. We will see how we like it when we actually go camping. Spending a small fortune on all those accessories.

Congrats. Remember when purchasing an RV, it's not about how much you spend on it, it's about how much you enjoy using it. Also many of the basic supplies can be purchased at Wal Mart or Amazon.
