| I have been looking at the Polaris 4 900, I am wondering what folks that have these use to haul and camp in. I currently have a Work and Play with a 10' garage, too small. Not wanting a $70,000 unit.... I starting looking at enclosed trailers, I use to have a Featherlite 4 horse trailer with living quarters and loved it. So, I was looking at trailers like that, with the back open, $80,000... I really would like to get an aluminum gooseneck, with at least 20' garage. So, far I have only found one used one within 200 miles. | |

| I use a 24' enclosed tag-along DIY toy hauler. I started a build thread last year when I got the trailer but really haven't updated it in a while. I basically have a bed and bathroom in the front with a kitchen and dinette behind that. The rear 12' or so has a bunk that swings down from the roof and a futon that folds against the wall. Definitely a labor intensive project but I am happy with the results. It's just a bit tight for a family of four though. If I had to do it all over again I would get a 36' gooseneck with a tapered front (since I have an F-250 short bed) and build it. I would love to get an aluminum trailer but they are $$$! There's no need for a 20' garage unless you are hauling more than the RZR. I would also check out the Balboa and Livin' Lite gooseneck/fifth wheel toy haulers, they are both similar to the Work N' Play. http://www.miragetrailers.com/index.php/balboa-toy-haulers.htmlhttp://www.livinlite.com/toy-haulers.php | |

| Kinda like Nathan we have a toy hauler / trailer. I had ours custom built 44' long gooseneck with 24' garage (we haul 2 machines) and a 20' living quarters. It's made by Freedom trailers in FL and they will build it anyway you like it. | |

| RZR Joe, do they have a website with floor layout options? I really would like to get a Gooseneck, around 36'. | |

| Freedom TrailersThey only sell through dealers. I got mine through Wagon Master in AL. Ty Justus is the owners name and he's a great guy to deal with and followed through on everything we wanted. I shopped around and got quotes from several places and they came in under budget and were the only ones to be able to build it in the time frame I needed. They will build it anyway you want. | |

| I think we will just rent a cabin or take two trucks this season and use the camper that we have. I want to make sure we are going to enjoy it before we go all in. We have changed hobbies a lot of the years as the kids have grown. I started with a Aluminum Horse Trailer w/ Living Quarters, then a Motorhome, to a Toy Hauler, to a 5th Wheel Camper, to a small bumper pull toy hauler. I'm ready to settle in one and keep it.... | |

| Here is mine, https://southernsxsriders.forumakers.com/t9378-my-new-cargo-trailer-toy-hauler?highlight=cargo+trailer+camperI've kicked around building another one a few times. Just cause I've changed trucks and now I only carry a single XP 900 now vs two 800s. Of course I have a few ideas and features for a new trailer lol. But honestly this trailer has worked out great. Easy to pull and hasn't gave me a bit of trouble. I really do think your better off with a cargo camper or a race car trailer with living quarters then you are with a typical camper.. Work and plays are pretty good. But my sister bought one around the time I've built this trailer and I've had to work on hers a few times. In fact I got a call yesterday that they think they have a water leak and water damage. | |

| Agreed. I miss my old cargo trailer camper. I like it better than my current XLR. However, just put a deposit on a Jagged X last night so the garage in my XLR is now too small so I will be on the lookout for a new camper that will fit a 4 seater. | |
