What should you look for when purchasing a small toy hauler?
A toy hauler is an RV that can be towed behind a vehicle and features a garage at the rear, which can be accessed by means of a large ramp at the rear. ATVs, dirt bikes, golf carts, and motorcycles are some of the items that people tow in their toy haulers. Many toy hauler travel trailers are available in large sizes, but there are also some smaller models that can be pulled by SUVs. Before purchasing a small toy hauler, there are a few factors to consider.
You should measure the trailer’s length, height, and width in order to determine its size. A larger toy hauler means that there is more storage space, but it is also heavier and harder to transport. Also, depending on your height, you will have a limited amount of standing room.
It is also important to consider the UVW and GVWR of the toy hauler. Toy haulers leave the factory with an unloaded vehicle weight, which is known as UVW, or Unloaded Vehicle Weight. There is no inclusion of cargo or water in this value. It is the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) of a toy hauler that determines how much weight it can carry when it is fully loaded. By exceeding this limit, you will adversely affect the performance and safety of your vehicle.
You can calculate the cargo carrying capacity of a vehicle by subtracting the UVW from the GVWR. The weight limits for RVs should be kept in mind when loading the vehicle. Since toy haulers are often used to transport heavy loads, such as ATVs, the weight limits should also be tailored to your needs.
