@draconis0469 4 жыл бұрын

Why would you not want two drive axles

@rvhaulers 4 жыл бұрын

Great question. Two axles is absolutely an option! However, with our light RVs (20-30,00 lbs and up) we really don't need two rear axles. We don't have the pin weight. Here are some other reasons to consider: Why do we “single” an RVHauler? 1. Every individual state/province has their own rules, however one rear axle can often be classified as a motorhome. Titling as a motorhome results in far cheaper insurance, and registration costs. If it has two rear axles, it is often considered a commercial vehicle, and the insurance is about $3000+ per year. One rear axle, the insurance is about $900 per year. This is dependent on where you live. Sometimes you can have it titled as a “personal truck” when it still has two rear axles. 2. Perhaps an even stronger reason for singling the rear is the impact it has on the required operator’s license. A single rear axle can be driven with a standard driver’s license in most locations. A three axle truck requires a commercial driver’s license in most cases. 3. Make it a motorhome, and you don’t have to maintain a driver’s log, annual commercial safety inspections, or stop at weigh scales ever. 4. Better fuel mileage. There is less weight, road friction, and steel rotating. 5. Far better turning radius than your pickup. Two axles tend to “scrub” or grab the road surface, and it makes campground maneuverability more challenging. 6. Nicer (smoother) ride. 7. Results in a shorter rig overall. If you leave the tandem axles, we often have an RVHauler that is 3 feet longer overall. 8. Lower maintenance and repair costs (fewer tires, brakes, etc) 9. Increases your resale value - when you are ready to sell, it REALLY increases the value when there is a single rear axle. 10. Allows for more storage boxes under the bed/deck. 11. Some folks like the looks of a single rear axle. Visually it becomes more of an RV rather than a commercial truck.

So, Gregg, Dusty is already licensed as an RV/Motorhome?

@rvhaulers 4 жыл бұрын

Hello Don. Yes, DUSTY is a motorhome. Because I am a licensed automotive dealership, I implement motorhome title changes on all my RVhaulers to make it easy for my clients. You are buying a motorhome - not a commercial truck. Makes the insurance far cheaper too!

Hi "BG". Thanks for the great question. No, you DO NOT NEED A CDL! We are a licensed dealership that is able to re-title these units as motorhomes. Whatever you require in your home state/province to drive a diesel pusher motorhome, is generally all you need to drive one of our RVHaulers. In almost every location, a standard operators license, and sometimes an air brake course is required. Drive Safe! Keep the questions coming!

Beautiful truck and a very good price. I wouldn't mind owning one with out a sleeper. I don't understand the living quarters on these haulers especially when you have a 40 ft 5th wheel behind you with everything in it. On here you talk about height were I would be more worried about the limitation caused be the over all length.

@rvhaulers 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Moak Moak - Thanks for the compliment! You can certainly go with a day-cab (no sleeper). Many of my customers are attracted to the large sleepers because you have a built-in guest house, and a mini motorhome! Take passengers! Mother in law suite! Some of my clients like to setup "home base" with their 5th wheel, and then make day-trips or shorter trips out to the more remote and sometimes smaller camping areas. Everyone has their own likes, plans, and wishes. I'll make a day-cab unit for you! Regarding length, that is a great comment. When we get a big RVHauler, we tend to look at the heavier and longer 5th wheels. No solution is perfect in every way, but I would be delighted to talk to you about making one customized to your wishes.

@wildcoyote34 4 жыл бұрын

it's pretty damn scary seeing what can happen to someone not familiar with large heavy trailers I personally pull a large 5th wheel travel trailer but something i learned early on NEVER use a single wheel truck ,,i had a single wheel truck when i got my first 35ft 5th wheel and the truck had plenty of pulling and stopping power but the sway control was not there i bought a dually truck and will never go back to pulling a big trailer with any single wheel truck

@rsswdi 4 жыл бұрын

Hi Christopher, You will probably find that people looking at this type of setup have had or are looking at larger fifth wheels. I have both a 1-ton dually and Volvo motorhome like Gregg is selling here. The dually is at its limits pulling my heavy toyhauler and the Volvo barely knows its there going down the road. I get better mileage with the Volvo at 60-65 mph. The big big difference is that the Volvo has so much more stopping power with air disks and engine braking that it just make it a safer towing experience. The other big thing is fatigue...my wife has neck and back issues and can travel a least double the distance in the Volvo as it is so much more comfortable with a trailer attached. I think whats crazy is that people go into RV dealer and sales people say to the customer sure your 3/4 truck can pull that 21K fifth wheel. When I see that kind of setup I just move out of the way or just let them pass because it is much safer to have the truck controlling the trailer not the trailer overwhelming an underrated truck. The reason I went this route is that we can haul our SxS and SmartCar with us safely and the trailer can be left at a campsite and we have a living facility and haul our SxS (Polaris RZR) or Smart to explore other area's. Also, Gregg does a great job training people to drive a vehicle like this if they need it. If you can tow or have towed with a 3/4 or 1 ton truck this is an easy transition. Here is a link to my truck. Gregg did an outstanding job for me and is highly recommended. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b9-cZ5SZm8XYoWQ.html
