Thinking of a Toy Hauler
So I'm going to look at a Momentum 380 this evening. This would be our second fifth wheel, have a 2010 Sabre now and the repairs and double pulling a 12 foot trailer with Golf cart is wearing on me. Anyone had issues with the double axle? Friends have Toy Haulers with triple axles it seems the 380 is just as big as theirs (Don't get me wrong, I would prefer dual axles, maneuvering 3 axles seems to try to rip the camper apart). Next up, where do you put clothes for the peeps staying in the "Garage". I have a 6 and a 8 year old and want their stuff out of my bedroom!
Thanks is advance

Get one of those plastic rollaround drawer things. They work great for extra storage and can be moved easily to make room for toys while traveling.

Looks like the GD is out. There were things the 2015 didn't have. The 2016 amenities we like, but I really wanted the dual axles. And the white exterior is a deal breaker.

The triple is really not a problem unless you are making really tight turns. It also provides more weight capacity with three 7,000 lb vs. two 8,000 lb. axles.
Very happy with my 385.

Sorry to hear you've decided against the Momentum, but welcome to the forum anyway!
