    The new Tiffin is built on a Mercedes Sprinter Chassis.

    I always told the Missus that I'd buy her a Mercedes some day... I never realized that I'd have to buy a house in order to do it!
    May you and the misses have many happy days motoring around in the new ride. Happy Trails My Friend

    I missed those posts where you were selling your spyder. So, yesterday I typed in "golf+cart", and came upon the thread. I am sorry that you had to give up the spyder for health reasons.

    I'm debating a travel trailer toy-hauler. Bumper pull. But first I have to get a bumper with which to pull it. My Rav4 won't pull much of anything. Since I live in a condo, also have to figure out where to store it.....

    The RAV4 is only rated for 1500 pounds...
    (We've got a 2015 Limited, and it's been a great car!)

    Happy hunting for the "right bumper"!

    Bob, as I recall you or your wife have a Mini Cooper. You might consider flat towing that if you still have it. We have a Leisure Travel Unity built on the same Mercedes chassis and the same 6 cyl diesel. We tow a Mini with no problem. We only take it when we are going to be in one place more than a couple of days. One of the advantages of the class B+ RV is you can park it in most places. It's still a PIA to pick up camp when you want to do a some sight seeing or just running to the store.

    I believe that was the point being made with the comment about the bumper.

    Bob, are you going to still be on Spyderlovers??? We all need your comments. Things do change. My son found my original Mr. Norm's 1971 Dodge Demon and bought it. Since then, I bought a plum crazy 1969 Barracuda notchback. Something to expand the use of what free time I have. Have stay active. Good luke my friend with what ever you do.

    Wow, Bob! I've been away for a while, and things have really changed for you. Last I heard you had only your Spyder for sale. And you must have made a killer deal on buying that toy-hauler to have gained $8k on the sale! Good on you!

    I'm probably gonna sell my flat-bed trailer soon. I use it to haul my F3T behind my pick-up and RV. Interested?

    It's got the V-6 diesel in it.

    We figure that it'll probably outlast the both of us!

    No doubt about that..! The diesel motors that are well maintained will run half a million miles and run well throughout that time period..! They are engineered for torque so running up hills are usually never a problem for them. Good choice..👍
