Mark, it weighs about 60# right now with 3 batteries and the empty propane tank.

Trailer was subjected to Wedding Decoration Duty today, it performed flawlessly. Unloaded 70 MPH on 3 lane freeway behind the 1/2 ton truck it did really well. Parking spots are tougher behind the truck.

3 night shake down run with my Daughter and extended family went well. 500 miles total, 14 mpg Friday morning Going to Indianapolis on business so there was 50+ miles at 65mph that killed the MPG but the trailer handled well loaded at highway speeds. I got over 16mpg when I kept the RPM's under 2500 and speed under 50mph taking the back roads the rest of the trip.

Empty Tanks used to mock up to find out if the bracket was right. I pulled over and added more tie down straps and they stayed upright the rest of the trip.

Weak water crossing but I did get the tires wet. Notice that the water cooler has traded places with the propane tank. I placed the full tanks inside the trailer just to be safe until I make some better hold downs.

Selling off a few things

They are listed on ebay
M100, M416.jpg
M100, M416, Jeep WWII Shaped trailer

Used Dirtbike, Moped, Utility trailer

I am overwhelmed with life pressures and have realized I just wont complete some projects ever so I am letting them go. This will also give me some money for the jeep trailer and maybe I will want to work on it more.

Thanks Mark but I'm so jealous of a red one that I just can't love mine. And I am sure I will be green with envy when this heat wave passes and you resume construction on your second trailer.

I have thought about it for a few days and I have come to the determination that if I'm offered enough I will let it and the jeep go.

I cant mark it is in your yard!

Your family hauler is so nice I built mine to look as close to a M101 as possible. #1 problem with my trailer is I didn't make the sides high enough for the ARB fridge I want and the jeep is to small for it too.

My favorite rigs and trailers;

Every Miles a Memory's rig after Pat added the RTT.

There are plenty of other really nice trailers on here too.

The gray one sold for 150 dollars, the red one ended with no bids. I couldn't even get 100 dollars for a VIN and Title.

I could ship it to yah via the post office, VIN plate and Title first then if you ran out of money for shipping I could dump the rest at the scrap yard.:sombrero:
