Las Vegas Travel Trailer RV Repair
For people who like the idea of the RV lifestyle but aren’t ready to invest in a something as big as a motor home, a travel trailer can be an attractive and affordable alternative. Las Vegas Valley residents can depend on Las Vegas Custom RV Garage for professional repair, maintenance, customization and renovation of travel trailers of all sizes and types.
Big or Small, Las Vegas Custom RV Garage Works on Them All
Travel trailers can range from tiny teardrop models that sleep two adults to sprawling 45-footers that can accommodate up to eight. Some trailers are equipped with pop-out sides and roofs that can increase the interior space when parked. A travel trailer lacks a chassis so you will need a vehicle to tow it around. Of course, the type of tow vehicle needed will depend on the size and weight of the trailer.
Weight matters to avoid mechanical problems during your travels. It is important to stay within the gross vehicle weight rating for your chosen tow vehicle. This means knowing the weight of the trailer and calculating the weight of additional equipment, fluids and everything you pack in the trailer. Some states restrict total rig length so do your research before you hit the road to avoid disappointment.
Unlike a 5th wheel, which connects to a truck bed with a jaw hitch, a travel trailer utilizes a ball-and-coupler hitch that attaches to a vehicle’s back bumper. Because you can use a van or SUV to haul a travel trailer, you have space for more passengers but the tow vehicle must be powerful enough to haul the trailer, your passengers, and your belongings.
The most difficult thing about owning a travel trailer will be learning how to control the trailer when you are backing up. With a little bit of practice and patience, however, you’ll be parking your trailer like a pro. Regardless of what kind of travel trailer you own, Las Vegas Custom RV Garage has you covered when you need repairs, maintenance or renovation.
