Retiring soon, vehicle / trailer recommendations.

[MR. H1956]

We purchased a 7x10 open utility trailer which I think is heavy but no problem because it is pulled with an F150 4x4 PU.

I wouldn't go with anything smaller as this size works well with either an F3 or RT.

Yes that's the way I'd go. Very nice.

One thing I didn't see mentioned was brakes. If you run too close to, or exceed the max tow limits on a vehicle, you may have difficulty getting that load stopped in a reasonable distance.

Based on what you have said you are planning to do, 3-4 week trips, have you considered a toy hauler? Yes, you would need a bigger tow vehicle, but it seems that you may already be looking into that. Your hotel and food costs would go a long way toward the purchase of a toy hauler. Not to mention the convenience of not having to pack and unpack at hotels, cook your own meals, etc. Just something to think about.
