Don't tow a fifth wheel or you'll HAVE to have it! However a well set up tag, that's not too big, will tow pretty well. I'm too spoiled to ever go back to a tag.

Good luck, hope you don't have to order one, our new one JUST arrived at the dealer today, we ordered it March 2, 2108.


We are looking at a Sandstorm 251GSLC overall length is 31’ which is max we can get to store here at the house.


That's my limiting factor as well, plus getting it into the driveway! My son has a Sandstorm and it has been a great trailer, about two years old, not one issue. Small one though


That’s good hear the sandstorm is holding up.

I went 5th wheel. I find it easier to tow, no sway issues, even when I'm light in the front (RZR in the back and all the tanks are empty). I also find a 5th harder to backup then a tag, meaning when you have to cut sharp and fit into a tight space - a 5th wheel responds very slow when backing. In a real tight turn you can end up in a pretty awkward position with your tow vehicle. My issues, others with 5th wheels are better at it than I am. A tag will respond immediately to what you want it to do when backing, and you usually need less room to maneuver when backing up and turning into a tight spot.

Good luck. Enjoy the process.

5th wheel or bumper pull?


Bumper pull, Haven’t really consider a 5th wheel. If I did it would have to be the shorter ones like Attitude 28SAG. Hmmmmm

Wow. That's pretty drastic.

I hope you find a new one pretty soon. The forum will be pretty boring without your trip pics.


Kids are excited to shop for a new trailer.

BT,DT. Oirs was delivered to its new owner two weeks ago. Truck is next. After 41 years will I miss it? Some yes, mostly no. We now have a house that I can see the Cascades and Coast ranges from, so Im content.

What?!?! Where did this come from?


We had it listed ever since I had posted about it awhile back. We just weren’t really pushing hard to sell it. I turned down some offers along the way. The kids are growing fast and we just need a lil more room. Time to trailer shop again, this time we know what we want.
