New to us Truck Camper
We have been full timing for 6 years and love the life style. The problem is we have a 40 foot toyhauler and a Harley Trike Pulled by a GMC Crew Cab Dually. A lot of places we could not get into because of length. A couple we know was buying a Moterhome and selling their truckcamper. We bought it Our first. 2003 Ford F450 with a custom aluminum flatbed, a 2008 990s Artic Fox camper. I checked on the net at several sites trying to get a good idea of what the rig was worth. We did not steal it but feel we got a good deal. Now to outfit the rig and take our first trip. We kept the 40 foot toyhauler it is home, we have it in a private park in south Texas where we winter.

RE: Living Full Time in Toyhauler
We fultime in a Fuzion 383 Touring Edition 11. A 40 foot tri axle toyhauler towed with a GMC crew cab dually. We carry a Harley TriGlide 3 wheeler with us. We have been at it for 2 years now and love it, pulled to Alaska last year and have been to 13 states this year. Our toyhauler has a wall in the very back that swings to the side and locks in place when we are traveling, it has a small garage area but plenty of room for the 1 trike. We then unload the trike put the wall back in place and we have a full size fifth wheel camper to live in. Works great for 2 people but not so good for a family because no extra beds just the bedroom in the front. Good luck on your search

RE: Fuzion 6 point leveling system
We just had the leveling system installed on our Fuzion 383 which is a 40' fifth wheel. Works great so far. The system is made by Lippert Componets in Goshen In.

RE: added scissor jacks to 5th wheel in front of axles.
I saw a Montana the other day a guy had added a set of screw jacks in front of the axles. I use screw type jack stands in front of and behind the axles on our 40' toyhauler takes all the shake out. I've got a appointment with Lipert on August 1st to get the level up system installed. My front jacks are just to weak, picks front up real slow and a time or to not high enough.

Weak Landing Gear
I Have a 2010 Fuzion 383 TE 11 wich is a 40' triaxle toyhauler. We bought it new and the front landing gear has been weak from the start, in my opinion. The front jacks has one motor and picks it up real slow and stalls out if it has to be picked up very high. I have concidered a self leveling system but $5000.00 is a bit pricey. Is there a larger motor or a dual motor kit available any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance George

RE: What do you full time in?
We have a 40'Fuzion 383 Touring Edition 11 toyhauler. We chose a toyhauler for the room and we wanted to take our Harley TriGlide with us to ride when we were parked. Works great for us and with 3 axles will handle the weight also set up for dry camping incase the need arises, be prepared. George

RE: Opinions on Keystone Tail Gator Toy Haulers
Don't know about the one you named but we have a Keystone Fuzion 383 Touring Edition 11. This is our 2nd year with it. We are fulltimers so it gets used a lot. over 17,000 miles last year. Carry a Harley TriGlide in garage. Towed from Texas to Alaska and back last year. The AlCan hwy will tear up anything but we survived it. No major problems yet, a few small things not from Keystone but add on items such as the awning. my 3rd Keystone and I would buy another if I wanted one, Hopr this is the last one. George

RE: Extendable Towing Mirrors
Just a quick question for fj12 after putting the mirrors on and with them fully extended can you see down the sides of your trailer? I have a GMC Dually and put on a set of the clamp on mirrors from camping world. No complaint except I can't see down the sides of trailer, My camper is a Fuzion toyhauler wide body. Don't want to buy mirrors and still not see sides. Thanks George

RE: New to Toy Haulers advice needed
Congrats on the new Fuzion. We have a 2010 Fuzion 383 Touring Edition 11. It fits our needs perfectly and has held up well. We pulled it 16,000 miles last year From Texas to Alaska and back to Texas spending 6 weeks on the Oregon coast. We carry our Harley TriGlide trike with us and use it for side trips wherever we are at. These things are long and heavy. Good luck with the new rig enjoy it ever chance you get, We fulltime in ours and wouldn't want any thing else. George
