What do you haul?
We purchased our 1st (long story) Puma XLE 24FBC TH in May. When we were signing paperwork at dealer, the finance guy asked us what we were going to be hauling in it. When I said our Harley, he was glad. Tells us most ppl haul a golf cart. I jokingly said " later my wife could just push my weelchair in and take off".
Our main reason to go with a toy hauler was for Sturgis trips. Getting to old to tent camp. So we are hauling our Harley and with our 2nd Puma XLE 27QBC ( yes 2 in one year) TH we could haul 2 Harleys if I buy a bigger truck. It's nice to open back door and let the wind come through. Also it's easier to move gear in and out.

Not quite a toy hauler trailer but this is how we do it with our bikes. Photo taken in Bozeman Montana on our way to Glacier last summer.
We are in New Philadelphia, just south of Akron.

Nice. I can't load a bike and tow trailer. Only a short bed so tailgate would hit tongue jack.

We usually have 4 dirtbikes and a generator in our 26RR and a quad in the back of the truck. We boondock probably 20 weekends a year for MX races.

Freaking kids, man. Nothing fun but Legos and a Wii (well, now a Nintendo Switch). And space for Grandma + Grandpa to sleep.

We go to a lot of motorcycle events in North America so a toyhauler is a must for us. It is usually packed with 2-4 bikes. We also use it during weekend drag racing events.

I use to work on the drag race circuits back in 2000 2001. Worked with the pro stock motorcycle tires for Mickey Thompson.

I haul RC airplanes, golf cart, and a generator, when I'm by myself. When the family comes along, the golf cart and more "stuff" that DW swears we need..

I haul my Harley Road Glide Ultra all over the southwest...including every year to Sturgis. Gotta love having a toy hauler and the toy inside!

900 Razor, or our Harley Streetglide, depending on what type of riding we have planned.

Where do you stay in Sturgis? Found a quiet CG with great owners. For 6 nights only costs us $300 with light electric hook up.

I, being single, converted a 7x14 Lightning toy hauler into what I call The Rolling Man Cave. Spartan, but totally works. Haul one of my 5 bikes to Texas, The Gulf, up the East Coast and eventually to Northern Georgia every year to escape Stuff NObody Wants up here in the land of the ice and snow where the cold winds blow.
Weight is only about 3200 pounds fully loaded, maybe 300 pounds of stuff in the tow vehicle.
Used a Ford Flex with tow package for 4 years, rated 4500 pounds, but felt a bit strained. Just switched to a '19 Taboe rated 8400+ so expect smooth sailing. Also considering upgrading to a 'real' RV which will be heavier.

Perhaps the wrong spot but any suggestions for a small 17-20' Toy Hauler. I desire 1) dual axle 2) a bed somewhere so 1 person can sleep in the trailer with the motorcycle loaded. The Wolf Pup 18RJB is close... A plus would be to be able to get at the kitchen area when the bike is loaded.
My RMC has the "kitchen" in the front, and I built a 'drawbridge bed' in the rear.

I have a Stealth 2515, which I use to haul my Yamaha Super Tenere around.
