Room for Everything (and Everyone!)

One of the biggest challenges of traveling as a family is having enough space for people and gear. Toy haulers solve this problem with their signature feature: a built-in garage. Originally designed for carrying motorcycles, ATVs, and other outdoor toys, this space can easily be converted into extra sleeping areas, a playroom, a dining space, or even a mobile classroom for homeschooling families.

The ability to customize the space based on your family’s needs makes toy haulers a game-changer.

Grand Design’s Momentum series offers some of the most spacious and flexible garages available.

Models like the Momentum 397THS and Momentum 399TH feature expansive garage spaces with  electric bunks and fold-down sofas, allowing families to create a comfortable multi-purpose area.

Bringing the Fun Along

Traditional RVs often require you to leave bulky adventure gear behind, but with a toy hauler, you don’t have to make tough choices. Kayaks, paddleboards, dirt bikes, mountain bikes, and even a golf cart can fit in the garage space.

This means more outdoor fun without the hassle of renting equipment at your destination. Plus, many toy haulers come with built-in fueling stations, so you can keep your toys powered up no matter where you go.

Chase Booth, Grand Design’s Momentum Product Manager explains

"Momentum toy haulers are designed with adventure in mind. The 30-gallon fuel station ensures that families never run out of fuel for their toys, while the rugged construction means they can take on any terrain."

A Second Living Space

The garage area of a toy hauler isn’t just for storage. Many models include fold-down sofas, retractable beds, and even lofts, transforming the space into a second living room or bedroom. This is perfect for families with older kids who want their own space or for accommodating guests when traveling with friends. Having this bonus area allows for greater comfort and privacy, making family road trips even more enjoyable.

The Momentum 410TH takes this a step further by offering a fully enclosed garage with patio doors, a half-bath, and a washer/dryer hookup, making it ideal for extended trips or full-time RVing families.

Outdoor Living, Elevated

Many toy haulers feature a rear ramp door that doubles as a patio. This expanded outdoor space is great for relaxing, grilling, or even setting up an outdoor movie night. It provides a safe and comfortable way for families to enjoy the outdoors without tracking dirt inside the RV. Some models even include screened-in patios, offering a bug-free zone for dining or unwinding after a long day of exploring.

"The rear patio system in our Momentum line isn’t just about having extra space—it’s about creating an entirely new way for families to experience the outdoors. It’s a place to relax, entertain, and take in the views without ever leaving the comfort of your RV."

Built for Durability and Adventure

Families need an RV that can withstand the wear and tear of active travel. Toy haulers are built with rugged construction to handle the weight of heavy toys, meaning they often have stronger frames, reinforced flooring, and higher cargo capacities than other RVs. This durability ensures that the RV will last through years of road trips, family vacations, and outdoor adventures.

Grand Design’s Momentum models feature quad-seal technology, a fully laminated body, and reinforced D-rings in the garage to secure even the heaviest cargo.

Perfect for All Seasons

Whether you're heading to the mountains in winter or the beach in summer, toy haulers are designed for year-round comfort. Many models feature insulated walls, heated underbellies, and efficient climate control systems, making them suitable for any weather conditions. This all-season capability allows families to travel whenever they want without worrying about extreme temperatures.

"Grand Design owners love our Weather-Tek Insulation Package because it allows them to travel year-round with confidence. With heated tanks, a fully enclosed underbelly, and high-performance insulation, Momentum models are built to handle any climate."

The Ultimate Family RV

Toy haulers combine adventure, flexibility, and comfort in a way that no other RV can. With their spacious garages, versatile layouts, and ability to carry all the gear a family needs, they provide the perfect balance of practicality and fun. Whether you’re road-tripping to a national park, setting up camp by the lake, or hitting the sand dunes for some off-road excitement, a toy hauler is the best way to bring your family closer together while embracing the thrill of the open road.

If you’re looking for an RV that grows with your family, supports your hobbies, and turns every trip into an unforgettable adventure, a toy hauler is the way to go. Pack up, hit the road, and make memories that will last a lifetime.

The "Fun Five" Questions to ask yourself to see if a Toy hauler is right for you and your family

1. “What is your definition of ‘toys’ when you travel?”

Most people hear “toy hauler” and think dirt bikes or ATVs, but their “toys” might be paddleboards, kayaks, mountain bikes, or even an entire mobile playroom for kids. AToy Hauler's the garage space can be customized to fit your unique lifestyle—whether it’s adventure gear, a pet area, or even an office and can change as your lifestyle changes.

2. “Imagine it’s the perfect weekend getaway with your family—where are you, and what’s coming out of your RV?”

What is an ideal trip?  Are you unloading mountain bikes for a family ride? Pulling out an inflatable bounce house for the kids? Setting up a mobile art studio or workspace? Whatever your vision a toy hauler is often the perfect fit.

3. “What’s your plan for when the kids bring their friends—or when you want a little space to yourself?”

Families often outgrow traditional RVs because kids bring friends or want their own space. A toy hauler’s garage area can be a second living room, a teen hangout, a gaming room, or even a guest suite. A Toy hauler gives you the flexibility of having a separate,  endlessly multifunctional space. It's a garage one minute, a den the next, and then an office.

4. “Would you rather have a built-in home office, a bunkhouse, or a mobile patio… or all three?”

Unlike a traditional travel trailer or fifth wheel, a toy hauler RV can be all three at the same time. If you work remotely might love the idea of a quiet office, while a large family might love the idea of an extra sleeping area that transforms into a party deck. All options are available on any given day in a Momentum toy hauler.

5. “Have you ever wished your RV had a built-in mudroom?”

If you have kids, pets, or love outdoor adventures, you've probably struggled with tracking dirt into your RV. The garage space in a toy hauler is a perfect transition area to keep messes contained—whether it’s muddy boots, sandy feet, or wet gear. 

One of the downsides to the outdoors is that...iots the outdoors. Toy Haulers are great at keeping the outdoors outdoors so you can enjoy  the comfort of the indoors without having to be constantly cleaning.

But if you do want to bring the toys? What vehicles can a toy hauler fit?

Toy haulers are designed with versatility in mind, and the types of vehicles they can accommodate depend on the size of the garage space and the trailer's overall capacity. Here are some of the common vehicles and equipment that a toy hauler can carry:

1. Motorcycles: Most toy haulers can easily accommodate one or more motorcycles, especially standard or dirt bikes. A toy hauler with an 8- to 12-foot garage is often sufficient for motorcycles.
2. Dirt Bikes: These are one of the most common vehicles carried in toy haulers, as they are lightweight and compact. You can usually fit multiple dirt bikes in a smaller garage space.
3. ATVs (All-Terrain Vehicles): Depending on the size, many toy haulers can accommodate one or two ATVs. The width of the garage is important here, as some ATVs may require at least 5 to 6 feet of width and 8-10 feet of length.
4. UTVs (Utility Task Vehicles): UTVs, or side-by-sides, are generally larger than ATVs, so a bigger garage—typically 12 to 14 feet in length—may be necessary. They also require additional width and height, so a toy hauler with a wider garage and taller ceiling clearance may be needed.
5. Snowmobiles: If you're into winter sports, many toy haulers can fit one or two snowmobiles. Consider garage length and width, as snowmobiles can be long and bulky, but their slim profile usually allows for easier packing.
6. Golf Carts: Many toy haulers can accommodate a standard golf cart, though this usually requires at least a 10- to 12-foot garage. Be sure to measure the height, as some toy haulers may need a higher clearance for a golf cart's roof.
7. Small Cars: Some toy haulers can fit small cars, like smart cars or other compact vehicles. This typically requires a toy hauler with a longer garage, 14 feet or more, and the garage must have a robust weight capacity.
8. Kayaks and Canoes: While not motorized vehicles, kayaks, canoes, and other large outdoor gear can be stored in the garage, especially if you opt for a toy hauler with overhead storage options.
9. Bicycles: If you're transporting regular or mountain bikes, a toy hauler garage provides plenty of space, with room to spare for other toys.
10. Off-road Buggies and Dune Buggies: Larger garages, usually around 14 feet or longer, can accommodate off-road or dune buggies, though they may require extra height and width for safe loading and unloading.
