Let's see those toyhaulers!!

[Biosafena]

After seeing the toyhauler recently listed for sale, I figured here must be others out there that have some neat way of hauling their Spyder and also having some living facilities. Below are a few pics of the one I built. Sorry, I don't have any pics of the Spyder in the back garage, but there is my Seadoo jet boat!
It only took four years and two trips to the emergency room.
Let the questions begin!

You can tell by all the tools and junk in the one pic that this was built in my driveway and when it starts snowing in northern Ohio, you just tend to throw everything inside out of the weather and dance around it until the spring thaw comes....

Nice job very professionally done:bowdown::firstplace: . The last picture explains why your boat fits in your toy hauler, cause its one big toy hauler. :clap::clap:

More, more!!

Let's see more! :clap:

The wife and I are thinking about traveling a bit in the future with either our bikes or spyder. We are currently deciding between either a truck/toyhauler combo or a class C motorcoach with trailer. I'm leaning towards the latter, since the trailer ramp is lower than the ramp angles in some of the toyhaulers we've seen and the overall length might be shorter.

So what do you pull that monster with??

Here are a couple more pics. That is a custom graphics wrap on the exterior. Used to be all black. I have been asked to build one for a buddy....ain't gonna happen! Many hours and many trips to Elkhart, IN to get parts from the surplus stores. This thing is just a Spyder...we have to give tours and answer questions wherever we go. I am usually asked what I am hauling. My usual response is "radioactive waste" or "go-go girls". That gets me some strange looks.

The tow rig is a 2011 Chevy 3500 LTZ crew cab dually with the Duramax Diesel and Allison transmission. Just set the cruise at 70 and go!

Nice job. very nice!:clap:What is the weight and what do you pull it with?

 

[arntufun]

That is really nice !!!!!!! :thumbup: Great job. I built one from scratch like you but it is nowhere as big or as nice as that one. Fantastic !!!!!!!


I hope to God you are required to have a CDL licence to haul a 44' trailer around. I would not want an average Joe out on the road with that monster. nojoke

 

[Biosafena]

The loaded weight is right around 18,000#. It tows like a dream. Will be hauling it with the Spyder in the back all the way to Texas in a few weeks.

That is one sweet rig!:thumbup::thumbup:

No CDL required. I had it re-titled as an RV and as such no CDL is required.

All of the cabinets and moldings were made from rough cut lumber that we milled ourselves.

Wow.... thats amazing you don't need a CDL. With your truck attached, your almost as long as a 18 wheeler. :yikes:



Regardless, your work is top notch. I'm to embarresed now to even think about showing my homeade toyhauler ever again.... :roflblack:

 

[Biosafena]

Yup...almost as long.
