pause the video at 3:56 and look at the wheels. i'm sure this could be common but interesting
-
They were crap before, they are probably still crap.
I will never buy another wood framed trailer again.
-
Aw c'mon it's just camera angle .................................... rofl rofl To be honest they all lean out on sharp ,jack knife turns but that does look a bit excessive to put it mildly. eyes Truth is that everything is built to the lowest possible level to keep weight down so you can pull a 38 foot bumper RV with a 1/2 ton. LMAO
-
rofl rofl but the video says... built with the highest quality product... just narrower and shorter to shave weight rofl regardless they are still one of the more popular models out there.
bdwk....short of building one out of an enclosed cargo trailer, is there a model that you know of that is built with aluminum studs instead of wood?
I know it's strange but there new site shows a pic of a bumper hitch model with a fifth wheel body. kind of looks strange but I like it for some reason. fabbr you saw the 35' bumper hitch '06 wolf pack 30wp toyhauler I used to tow, that forest river rated as half ton towable!! (BS more like 1 ton dually towable rofl ).......THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN!!!!!!!!!! rofl rofl rofl rofl

this one looks nice and I think the company is sound but the price tag sets you back as well as he 13k lb empty weight lol
-
Mine was made by a company in Phoenix that makes cargo trailers normally.
http://aztrailboss.com/page14.html (http://aztrailboss.com/page14.html)
It is a little on the heavy side though. about 9500 empty. Loaded with the buggy and 50G of water it is 12K. It will hold 150G of water. Steel frame. Full plywood sides and roof under the siding. I still need to finish out the interior, but it is functional.
If I win the lotto, I will be calling ATC trailers for a full aluminum toy hauler. What I want only cost's about 80K new..........

well I know it's built better than a toyhauler! a toter and a stacker would be nice but like you said would have to hit the lotto to purchase and fuel it lol
-
here's an interesting pic and what I had in mind if my last tt toyhauler didn't sell.
-
here are a few more pics just to scratch you head at lol lol
-
this one is my favorite
-
this one might be over length
-
I'm only 72'. Feeling a bit inadequate now......................
-
Tandems with bumper pulls would not fly in Kali. No matter where they were registered........
Tandems with a Goose/fifth is ok if it's legal in your state.
I would hate to tow like that though. It's hard enough getting in and out of some places with My current rig.
That being said, when I move back to Kansas, I may have to hook My little motorcycle trailer up behind the GN to get everything out there in 1 trip. Will need to mount a camera on the back of the GN to see if the little trailer is still there and the tires are on it LOL..........
-
moving back to Kansas huh?! well then you'll get to know little sahara and will be a huge let down from what your used to lol still fun though! GN or FW is legal in Nebraska to have a tow behind but 65' length limit and law enforcement get bored a lot around here! I believe most state it is legal but 2 bumper hitch's are not legal here or in most states. I have had the misfortune of meeting or passing some like pic'd here and on the way to the dunes. saw one broke down too, although he was driving like a '78 to '82 class c dodge with a bumper hitch stock trailer behind him and a two jet skiis behind that and that was a few miles north of alva Oklahoma.
fabbr some of these units are getting sooooo big they might as well tow a trailer house rofl
-
Boy ,that's right DS. bdkw,look us up when you move back to Kansas!
-

No firm dates yet, but it is getting closer. Since I am street legal, I will be spending a fair amount of time in Colorado. Some bitchen stuff up there. Trading summer time single track riding in CO for Baja isn't that bad of a swap. If you factor in the standard 2 hour+ border wait to get back, travel times aren't that far off each other either.........
-
what are ya trying to wait out winter before you move back rofl it's a balmy 3* plus wind chill right now rofl well you still have some fun choices between the two or 3 locations and maybe you can make a get together at LS ok with the dts bunch?!!
-
3*...... I'm wearing shorts and a T-shirt............
LS trip is on the list once the move happens. We are driving out in July, may swing through LS on the way back. Hitting Colorado on the way out. May or may not have toys depending on what sells and what gets finished........ Or what I feel like dragging around.
-
Just be sure to let us know if we can help .
-
last I looked a few mins ago it showed 30* below 0 with windchill right now! no shorts and t shirts here lol tomorrow we're looking for a high of 2* with yet more wind so just as cold tomorrow but hey wens and thurs are looking up with poss high's around 30* so it will feel like a heat wave rofl thumb down
-
You know its cold when DS becomes an internet and post junkie! rofl Some of those doubles wouldnt be too bad if your just pulling a short distance. Saw one pull into Dueces at LS, truck with camper box in it, 25'? double stack trailer open full of rails, with a 10' flat full of quads. Only one truck cause all the $$ went to toys.
BTW in N Ga currently 25* and dropping. Winds 20-25 till wed. low tonight of 6*, H tomm 18*. wind chill -10 to -20. They canceled school already.

I expect you've hibernated til April? rofl
And global warming is responsible for cold too. If that answer dont work for you please drink more cool aid. bs1
-
You got that right Carl!!!!! Hibernation it is!!!! BTW,I was waiting for someone to bring up the "fact" that along with global warming comes a temperature decrease. Al Gore says so ,so it HAS to be true. Sarcasm Sarcasm Sarcasm Sarcasm Sarcasm Sarcasm Sarcasm

-

-
rofl Fine, I'll go get it... Just put a turn on the fuel screw of the Ranger and 5 more psi so the 90hp should do the trick.. I think I can use air shocks instead of bags Carl rofl
-
I'm not sure the toter could handle it.
