Somebody here hast to have a SportsmobileVan w/quigley 4x4 version. I have wanted one of those for like 15 years now!

PA Slammer · 12-04-2012, 08:30 PM

I'm glad to see I'm not the only gear junky out there.

Sportsmobiles are incredible! With my three boys I needed a step bigger and went with the Sprinter RV.

I really want to see some VRVs but... Too expensive? Too new to the market?

Some nice setups,, I have to see if I have pics of my little popup/bike carrier.. Its a bit smaller but fits the bill for now. Its a fleetwood neon and I made a single bike rack for the front, tow with a 2dr jeep JK wrangler..

What is a VRV?

PA Slammer · 12-05-2012, 04:17 PM

You don't want to know. If you find out, your wallet becomes extremely light.

Do a search for VRV toy haulers. They're made by Livin Lite.

I had to look !!

VRV looks cool but the sportsmobile still hits my needs better.

I got to get one - life is to short.

This is what I bought a couple years ago, actaully this exact one it was the first model they had in ,I have a mini fridge and micro in the v nose along with an aluminum shelf I built above them for storage. Works well I also have a set of cot bunk beds I can assemble for when the family or friends goes with me.I also bought a a rail set up a friend made to strap six but in reality 4 bikes.I have hauled 4-650 ds bikes at once in it. I would post my pics of it but I alway have a hard time getting pics on here. http://beckercustomtrailers.com/trai...-out-toyhauler

Here's a few pics of mine...

2011 Mercedes Sprinter. I've put 35,000+ miles on it in the past year. I love this thing.
If they took it away from me.. I'd buy exactly the same thing over again.

The build isn't done but the queen sized bed, fridge, and espar D2 heater are all installed. I won't go into too much detail since there is a build thread in Shiny Things

I have it configured so I can carry a bike inside, a bike on the back bumper, or 3 bikes on the trailer.

slowpoke69 · 12-08-2012, 10:39 AM

I've been wanting to do this for awhile now. You can get one with the Cummins 4 or 6 cyl. diesel, some even have liftgates.

Put a bathroom in the back corner and just go from there. By the time you add a few needed things you've got a toyhauler no one else has.

If I do get to do it soon I'll do a build thread, I even have an artist that I know to paint it. I've seen some of his freehand stuff that's pretty cool?

If you convert it to 4WD it'd be unstoppable, a genset, aux. tank, black and gray water tanks, heater,a/c. That'd be SWEET!

Purchased last July, 09 XT245 FunFinder...

""The Fun Finder XTRA is a ½ ton towable toy hauler you can depend on. The Fun Finder XTRA is the only truly dedicated ½ ton towable toy hauler in the industry today. With a 5/8 tongue and groove plywood floor, removable carpet, rear screen door, exterior LED lights and power front jack you can be assured that the Fun Finder XTRA has all the features and options you would come expect on a toy hauler. Whether you are looking for a 20’ or 30’ trailer, the XTRA Toy Haulers meet all of your needs for your short to extended stay adventures with the cargo capacity to match.""

all the comforts of home. cargo is 3000lbs which includes gear, holding tanks, beer etc. so really 2000 to 2500lbs

Pretty cool toy hauler

Night_Wolf · 12-08-2012, 03:38 PM

Here are some pics of the new mobile man cave. It's a Grey Wolf 25RR & we'll be making some mods to suit us better

Camper has all the amenities, but is seriously lacking storage space. We are planning on building some cabinets and possibly removing one of the two sofas in the rear as we don't need it

I will take more pics once it warms up a wee bit as it's a chilly minus 16 here today not including wind chill
