great video, glad your trail model rzr fits. i have not idea why they don't narrow up the base cabinets for a min of 80" floor space as that would be sooo easy. the counter top could remain the same depth with a narrower base cabinet. our 4 seat pro r is 80" wide with sand tires on and several friends are real close to 80" dune or desert prepped. the only other issue is the complete lack of cargo capacity. the later model turbo or pro r models are close to 2000 lbs dry! that toyhauler would need a min of 4000 lb ccc for those with camping gear and some water. the floor plan is great and at only 5100lbs dry weight thats a very easy unit to tow!
Excellent video job. You answered my concerns 100%. I'm currently looking at the XLR but the next size bigger because I didn't see any info on the 20' and was not sure if my machine would fit. I have a RZR 4S that is 60 inches. I want to keep the trailer as small as possible and the 20' will be just right. Tomorrow, I will be looking for an XLR. Again, excellent job.
I had the exact same trailer towing a two seater and we upgraded to the forest river XLR boost 27QB.... it’s basically the exact same floor plan with a front bedroom and a larger bathroom.We could not be happier with it
I would like to know how you strap it down. I have a 30 foot nitro XLR toy hauler by forest river. I have a Polaris razor four seater that goes inside but every time I go on a trip the straps come loose I put six straps on it each and every time and no matter what I do the straps all come loose after a 4 hr drive
I use the D rings that are mounted in the floor of the trailer and run my straps underneather to the tow hook at the back and the front tie down plate at the front of the RZR. I had a problem with the tie down points on the trailer being to close the the tie down points on the RZR so I run the straps from the forward tiedown point in the trailer all the way to the back of the RZR and the most rearward tie-down point in the trailer to the front of the RZR. It ends up making a bit of an "X" pattern underneath with the long straps but so far I haven't had any issues. It seems like it allows it to rock a bit without unstrapping itself. Hope that makes sense!
I haven't weighed it at a scale but you're right with the RZR and water tanks you don't much extra weight to play with. When we do trips to go riding in the RZR we pair down a lot of what we bring. If we are road tripping without it we load up whatever we want.
@@travisadventureprojects4578 i have a bumper pull on the larger side and i only habe 850 lbs left after a RZR4 and full water (100 gallon) and full fuel station (30 gallon). Lucky for me i have an 05 f250 6.0 with a large enough payload capacity i can put my two dirt bikes in the back and still be under 400 lbs. Otherwise i would be over.
With the way the axles sit, it actually rides really nicely over the axles. We just make sure to put any camping gear forward of it, and it tows great!
Do your couches have to stay to the side walls? I was looking at a 2018 model and the rear garage has a queen bed and 2 fold out couches and the couches and the bed both can lay horizontal across the roof giving 74 inches of clearance from floor to the couches. Maybe yours is different because it’s a 2016 and the one I saw is a 2018? I also have an aftermarket cage that’s chopped like 5 inches so mine is only 69 inches tall
Ya thats a slightly different option to ours. When you have the queen bed the couches mount to the lift for the bed so they are able to raise up as well. Ours are just hard mounted to the wall.
I appreciate the info. The salesman was actually wrong. There’s only about 67 inches of ground clearance between floor and bottom of the sofa with the sofa raised up. My rzr is 69 inches tall with aftermarket cage. I had to pull my rzr in with the sofa down on the wall. My rzr is 69 inches wide and was able to fit it
So 64" wide machine. So how much room would you so on each side? Left is 2 ' 6" counter or 3" deep counter and right side 2' deep cabinets. So would you say with a 8.5 wide trailer you have 2' at least on each side? Thanks for video, great info
It's a complicated question as it's the tires on the left hand side, but the roll cage on the right hand side that come close. I'd say you probably have 2" or so, but depending on the roll of your side by side and how rough your roads are it could potentially hit the cabinet. Now if you machine was lower than the cabinet you would have lots of room. I think with these things being able to test fit your machine it key. There are so many factors other than width that decide if something is going to fit or not!
@@travisadventureprojects4578 Yeah right. Well I'm looking at rving full-time an wanted a cam-am sport 64" wide with a scooter next to it. 2' 5" wide with the handle bars. But maybe instead of with i just need slightly longer then a 11' footer.
I was also thinking of front bumper on hdt but I'd hate to hit something an total it. Also was thinking behind cab though. But i also wanted a wave blaster
@@draintech5191 I know the Can Ams are a little shorter but wider in the body. If your planning on RVing full time then you would sure want something that's not stressful to load an unload. We had our machine first so we were able to bring it to test fit it when we bought our trailer. There are so many trailer shapes out there I'd test fit it to make sure everything fit comfortably!
You really have to scale back the stuff you pack to keep it under the Gross weight of the trailer. It towed alright with a 1/2 ton. Going throught the mountains it was fairly heavy but not unmanageable.
What is the tongue weight empty and with the rzr in? Does the toy hauler tow ok empty? We are looking at some but we won't always be hauling our side by side when we go camping.
It tows fine with and without the RZR. I haven't had a chance to measure the exact tounge weight with the RZR in but it sits right over the axles and seems to tow really well. So I figure it sits somewhere in that 10-15% sweet spot give or take a bit.
@@travisadventureprojects4578 thank you for the reply! Good to know. We have a 2019 Power Wagon and I really don't want to have to put air bags in it. I have had 1800lbs of wet dirt in the back of it and handled it quite well (I know that was well over the listed payload lol).
The trailer is somewhere around 5000lbs and the RZR is roughly 2000lbs. So all in 7000lbs. The gross weight the trailer can handle is 7500lbs, so it doesn't leave much room for cargo. But for a a toy hauler this small to fit such a large machine, thats the trade off.
Kawasaki Teryx 4 fits so much nicer and can go down virtually any trail a quad can. I know the RZR is one kick ass beast, it is too big for what I ride here in the Crowsnest Pass Alberta Rockies.
I originally had a 2009 Ram 1500. Loaded up it towed alright, but it was working pretty hard. I now have a Ram 3500 and you don't even notice it behind you any more.
I'm not sure, you'd have to compare the measurements between our 2018 XP 4 1000 and see. It's pretty snug so you wouldn't be able to go much wider without removing one of the benches.
There are D-Rings mounted in the floor from the factory. I use four straps using the furthest forward D-Rings to attach to the back and the furthest back D-Rings to attach to the front of the RZR. This creates an X pattern underneath with no movement of the machine.
