    Full timing in a Momentum 376TH......

    I understand that the 376TH has only been out about a year but I have a couple of questions. Within the next year I will be retiring and we will be full timing. I will be doing volunteering or work camping for our RV space and hook ups and am already signed up on the work campers forums. My wife has an internet business that she'll keep doing. We also have our Social Security and my retirement.

    Regarding the 376TH, two questions:

    Is anybody actually full timing or spent at least six months in one? Can you share your experience with us please? Is it adequately insulated? Any major issues or just plain nuscenece issues that we might expect with this model?

    Is anybody hauling an Ultra Classic Harley in their 376 TH? Any issues that I should be aware of there?

    Thanks in advance for your feedback.

    I have hauled my Road King with a trunk (almost like a Ultra) no problems. It is tight to around the bike to ratchet it down, especially the front.
    There is a thread about chocks in here, and it gives you a couple of ideas that people are using to secure the bike.

    Once the bike is in there is not any room for anything else back there.

    If you need work space or going to want a Rino/Razor to help in your work camping, you might want to think about another model.

    That being said we have only done 1 six week trip, getting ready to go back out. Love it. Floor plan works for us.

    Just as you said we part time-full time! We are on our 6 months in FL as we speak. We could not be happier with our 376 Th. It lives great! The front living room is fantastic even with a few visitors up there. I love the fact that I am sitting up here this morning watching the tube, drinking my coffee and there is no way I'm disturbing the hubs --still in bed! We carry either a golf cart or a Yamaha Venture in the garage. Right now we have the Venture and we were able to slide a bicycle in beside it. I love this plan for full time because we just didn't want to give up living space for a garage and this works perfect for us!!

    That's a Harley dresser and there is NO WAY that I could go that slow up the ramp of my 380TH. The 376 ramp must be lower.

    The 376 ramp is way lower than the traditional 5th toyhauler. LOTS less scary with a big bike.
