Alluminati, I failed to mention that I also had a Sequoia AND the LC, until I sold the Sequoia to my daughter. And, in case you're wondering, I NEVER buy a new car. I have learned that with the life...

I think I am leaning toward staying away from the vintage TT at this point. Don't want to deal with the potential issues/hassles at my age.

Good list, although I have found that the tranny on the LC with towing pkg. has stood up quite well with a 3000# boat all over the south in summer.

Yes, Aluminati, I have both the LC and a Lexus RX, and I wouldn't want to tow anything over about 1000 lbs with the RX.
Also, I am not interested in a TT that doesn't have quality brakes. Way back...

Thanks for the good info, Starstream, both on your rig and on travelling with dogs. We have two full size Golden Doodles, both of which are registered Therapy Dogs, and very well behaved. Also, they...

Appreciate the comments, Alluminati, but I want to say that I believe it is the Lexus LX that is essentially the same as the Toyota Land Cruiser. The GX is 7 inches shorter and 3 inches narrower than...

Thanks, Crispyboy. You make a lot of sense to me, and I am leaning toward the 4-people-is-too-much side. And I appreciate your bringing it up, but there is a very nice, large hybrid for sale in the...

Thanks for being nice about my naivete', Avionstream. I don't want a portable waste tank in my LC either, LOL.

Good info, 1973Argosy. I do think having both holding tanks would be worthwhile. Thanks!

Very interesting Rideair. That is quite useful info. I assume most 60-70's TTs have been redone, so that it is possible to find one in which things work as intended. As I mentioned earlier, while I...

Thanks for the excellent info, Twinke 58. So the "Vintage" designation is the same as for cars...and the latest vintage model is '91, as of of now. Is yours a single or dual axle? Do you know how...

I think this needs to be said, Slowmover: There are plenty of people that would think there would be far better choices in a TT than your 26 year old Silver Streak. I don't see anyone trying to talk...

I would add that I have logged around 2.5 million miles without an accident (and, yes, I realize it could happen tomorrow; that is part of the reason I've had no accidents). Around 250,000 of those...

Well said, Slowmover; and I completely understand that a Cummins Diesel long WB duelly is far better for many TTs and situations. It is just that, although I am certainly going to spend a lot of time...

Interesting idea, Twinke58. And that brings up a question that has been running thru my mind. Is there an agreed definition of what constitutes a Vintage AS? Pre-2000 or pre-1990, or Pre-one of the...

Useful info, Mandolin Dave. I'm beginning to figure out that TTs weren't really made for more than two. However, we prefer to travel with friends or family, and it doesn't make sense to me to have...

Thank you, Starstream. It is definitely useful to verify that the same model and length AS from different years might weigh in differently. I do think your 31' model with gross weight of ~7000# is a...
