Default Toyhauler advice?

My dad is thinking about a rappy, as some of you may know, and this brings about a little bit of a problem. Our current trailer is only big enough for 2 quads, and we'll soon have 3 with the rappy. We discussed the matter a bit and are thinking about possibly getting one of those trailer / camper kinda things. You know, the back folds out and you can put quads inside and then when you get where youre goin, you take em out and the trailer has beds that fold out and its kinda like a camper. Anyway, i was wondering if anybody on here has one or knows anything about them. I havent been able to find any websites or brand names, or even prices, so anything you know would help. We would like one to carry 3 quads and then sleep at least 3 people as well.

Thx everybody!

A buddy of mine just bought a Fleetwood. Real nice and seems to be very well done - lots of little details - well thought out. They are not especially cheap ($$$) but seem like a good way to go....

GearBox

I just bought a 21' Attitude and really like it. It seems a little better built than most in it's price range (cheaper end) and comes with a lot of standard features that are extra on others. I think I could fit three quads but it would be a tight fit, but the 23' was only another 6 or 7 hundred and would probably be a better size for three. Unfortunately there a smaller builder and may only be available in So. Cal.
Of the more expensive ones I think the Gear Box is really nice.
Pick up an RV Trader or check it out online.

LOWBOW I think it's around 4500 #s empty and I pull it with a 3/4 ton suburban 4x4 454.
Johnny the 23 is around 17,000 w/ gen. a/c fuel sta. tv w/dvd stereo ect. ect.
LTZ I'm not so sure about that. I looked at a lot of them and to me the WW was over priced.

Just do a Google search on "toy haulers". There are quite a few manufacturers that make them.
