RV Learning Center / RV Highlights

The Travel Trailer

The RV travel trailer is towed with a ball mount and a hitch receiver that's located below the rear bumper of the towing vehicle.  In most cases a weight distributing hitchsystem is also employed to reduce the effects of the trailer's hitch weight on the suspension of the towing vehicle.  Various sway control devices are also often used to enhance towing characteristics.  Available in the widest variety of sizes, floor plans and price range, a travel trailer can be found to fit just about any size family, tow vehicle and type of camping.  And you don't need a pickup truck to pull one - a properly equipped van or SUV can make a great towing platform as well. 

Generally available in sizes from 16 to 32 feet, many travel trailers also have motorized slide-out rooms to expand the floor space while in use.  Travel trailers were the original towable RV, and Curtis Trailers has an extensive selection of new and used units of this type to choose from.
