FunFinder X210WBS Weights and Misc
I am looking at the funfinder x210wbs. If some has one I would like to know the approx wt when your tt is loaded less any water. I have a 07 GMC Yukon 4x4 5.3 3.73 7200# tow rating. I will be towing in the mountains as well as flat country. Want something easy to tow and no strain on my tv. How are the beds in these tt? shower room? Will just be me and occasionaly my wife. Thanks for any info

Heya Sam, fellow nOOb to the forum here.
I just purchased a 25' 250BHS model which has similar weight to my previous trailer, an Airstream.
If my experience is any judge, your Tahoe should not have any problems towing the TT you are looking at. My F-150 towed my Airstream all over Oregon. Crossing the Cascades, Coast range, Up into the Blues, etc. My truck really wasnt slowed down at all. Your rig will handle it with room to spare. Just make sure you get a weight distribution set up for added safety.
I havent actually towed my 250BHS yet, I pick it up on 9/12. I anticipate zero towing issues as it is well within the twoing specs of my truck.

Van,
Thanks for the info, appreciate it. Plan on getting the appropriate wd set up and anything else I need. Thought about up gradeing my TV, but being a 07 full size 4x4 suv it's a tough trade in this market. Buying something I can comfortable tow at the point makes more sense....Sam

I tow a x210WBS with a 2006 Toyota 4 runner equipped with the 4.7 V8.
The only complaint I have is the 20 gallon fuel tank, which only gives you a towing range of about 160-180 miles. Othwerwise, with a load dist. hitch and sway control, its no problem. Bought the trailer in Washington and towed it home to So. ca. Ran up the grapvine with ease...

You should not have a problem with your vehicle. I tow my 21wbs with an Envoy Denali. It has the 5.3 engine. I've crossed the lower US twice and not problem at all. The gas mileage drops but I save on hotels.

Thanks to one and all. Look's I should be good to go. Next step is to decide on the 18 or 21', slide or no slide.

I tow my 210WBS with a 99 Tahoe very similar to Yukon, 350 ci, 4x4, 3.73 rear axle & 7200# tow rating. I use a WD hitch without sway control and it tows just fine. You know it's there but its very well mannered.
To answer your other questions the bed is very comfortable, I do wish it was 6" longer though.
There's ample room in the bathroom, with tons of storage cabinet space. The shower is a bit tight because the water knobs are pretty low, so bending over to reach them is a bit cumbersome but not horrible. Just have to get used it.
I haven't had the trailer weighed but its listed at 3500 lbs, which others have said is on the light side. I estimate that full loaded with gear its probably about 4500#s.
We looked at both the 189 & 210 and decided on the 210 because of the walkaround bed. No climbing over the other person for midnight bathroom visits that way. Either way we definitely wanted the slide because of the extra space and it really does make a big difference.
Hope this helps. Good luck with your purchase!

lol, sam. You have been looking quite a while now. Time to pull the trigger on one. Time to get camping in the Fun Finder you are obviously picturing yourself owning.
