RV Styles - A Different Kind, A Different Brand

Here we will talk about some different rv styles. You will find a variety of campers on the market today. You will be overwhelmed when you go shopping for a camper if you do not know what you need.

First let's examine the 5th wheel trailer. This RV style is pulled by a hitch .description of image mounted in the bed of a truck. .description of imageThis hitch is not on the bumper like a bumper pull. The 5th wheel trailer is built so the tongue of the trailer fits over the truck bed and slides into the hitch. These are a very popular kind of camping rv.

Second, let's examine a bumper pull RV style. These campers are pulled from the ..description of imagebumper of the tow vehicle. A class hitch is mounted under the vehicle and attaches to the camper by a tow bar and mounting ball. The tongue of the camper is made about bumper high to a truck so as to be in line with the towing.

Third, let's look at a fold down camper also known as a pop up camper. These are small and can be pulled by just about any mid-sized vehicle..description of image These also attach to the bumper mounted hitch. These lightweight campers are good for light traveling. One thing these lack is living space. They are compact for travel and open up just enough for a couple of people.

Fourth, let's look at a toy hauler. These are the cutest things if you are wanting to take four wheelers or motorcycles. One end of these rv style campers opens up to the outside and is open space inside for storage. ..description of image

You can carry tool boxes and your small recreational toys along with you. The front part of the trailer is for living quarters. You will find enough room to accomodate your family and comfortable seating and sleeping areas.

Another rv style of travel trailer is the hybrid travel trailer. These are a small, light weight, easy to pull trailer with a fold in concept. The ends pull out and create more room on the inside. These pull out beds make this rv versitile, yet as practical as a fold down camper. The best thing is you don't have to raise or lower the roof. Most hybrid travel trailers have the conveniences of a bumper pull camper. They can sleep up to six people.

The motor home is just what it says, a motor home, or a home with a motor. You drive this travel trailer to your destination and where you park it is where it stays. These are different than the other campers we have looked at. Most people pull a vehicle with these trailers ..description of imageinstead of a vehicle pulling a camper.

The reason is - you will need a means of transportation after setting up your trailer.

These trailers are spacious and often have fancier interior design and more options. You could live in a motor home just as a mobile home.

A hi-lo camper is a little different than your regular camper as in the top lowers down. Now you can't put anything in this camper without laying it down whenever you are ready to lower the top. It is electric and is easy to use. The main thing to remember is to keep your things away from the wall area when lowering.

Some campers and even motor homes have expandable rooms called slide outs. Now some of .description of image these are electric and some are hand cranked. Often you will find the eating area in a slide out. Sometimes the living area, sometimes a sleep area.

These rooms are inside the camper when traveling and slide out when ready to camp for extra space. It is a very nice and convenient option you

would love to have.

I hope this helps you with the basics of rv campers. There are a few I didn't mention. Be sure to ask the travel trailer dealer about the variety of campers they carry. You will know about what you are looking for when you get there.

Be sure to check your vehicle's towing rates before you go looking for your camper. You can only pull a camper within the weight limits of the vehicle you plan to pull with.

Ask your salesman to help you find a camper that meets your towing needs as well as your living space needs.
