This is true. We've fixed and modified things all across the country. Sometimes in campgrounds sometimes on BLM lands, sometimes in friends driveways. We carry a good assortment of hand tools just for that reason. We did find a source for cabinet doors that is better than factory and cheaper...

I can't speak for the true "off road" trailers but here is my opinion on my EPro 19FD which we bought to work from while we fulltime travel. We bought it in June of 2021, we've spent 10 months straight living out of it and currently have about 380 nights in it. Since we switch to our teardrop...

I have the black 2nd gen Tacoma in those videos. The tires are the 255/85/16 Cooper ST Maxx. They're about 32.8 " tall new but at Elephant Hill they had about 55,000 miles on them so even shorter than 32.8. I'm on a 1.5" lift and used the skid plates a few times, even with careful pre-walking...

Look up the Forest Rivers Rockwood Geo Pro and Flagstaff E-Pro ( same trailers different graphics) series of travel trailers. We purchased a Flagstaff E Pro 19FD in 2021 and have no major complaints. 4200 lbs loaded. The water tanks (37 gallon fresh, 30 gallons black and grey tanks) are big...

After a short stint of working Gate guarding oil rigs in Texas we picked up our vacation home and headed out for a3 month vacation. Starting in the Comanche National Grasslands Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

Our teardrop was built matching the track width of a first gen Tundra. We now tow with a 2nd gen Tacoma. The Tacoma is about an inch or two narrower in track width. To be honest I haven't noticed any issues over all kinds of surfaces. The only thing I notice is I have to watch tight corners just...

I had a set of Maxx's when I was in Canyonlands in late May of 2021. At the time they had 50,000 miles on them and they did great on the rocks going over Elephant Hill, over to the Confluence Overlook and then out of the park through Bobby's Hole. Great tires for all conditions. Sent from my...

The Maxx fan will only draw more than the fridge if it's on its higher settings. On its lowest 2 settings it uses very little energy. In our teardrop we almost never have the fan on more than a 2 setting. We switched to lithium batteries and it was a life saver to us. We are lead acid battery...

It was so long ago, but I think we used a gallon of each part of the epoxy mix to do every panel on the CrowsWing. For what it's worth it's all held up very well for its 38,000 miles and 10 years of use Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

The mesh is the same material that dump trucks use to cover their loads. It's vinyl mesh and you'll need a heavy duty sewing machine to build it but it works better than flaps for gravel. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

We've lived in our home built all across the country, in black bear territory and grizzly territory. We've seen bears but they've never once bothered the camper. Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

We live on the road, so the trailer is home. We lock it up and cable the wheels to spend a night or two in a rougher area than we like to take the trailer. As example, we left it on BLM lands outside of Monticello Utah while we camp and explored the Needles district in the Canyonlands. Elephant...

We tow a teardrop. The trailer has everything in it for a long term basecamp. Of course it has a bed, kitchen, fridge etc. It also carries an EZUp, camp table, chairs - everything for a basecamp for weeks. The truck carries a generator, extra gas, drinking water, backpacking stove, foods and...

We made a huge decision. With our new lifestyle of work camping, living on the road around the country and finding jobs and fun where we can we decided to sell the Tundra. Having one truck in storage, paying insurance and taxes didn't make sense to us. The CrowsTow aka Queen Elizabeth's Revenge...

I remember being in Wyoming for that snow! We cheated and got a hotel in Greybull to wait it out! Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

If anyone ever still reads this thread.... here's a walk through of our trailer and how we're living on the road (10 months now!) Sent from my SM-G960U1 using Tapatalk

Honestly, things I don't need: a removable tongue. Adds complexity to the build, adds extra failure points. Make the tongue just long enough to jack knife the trailer and its perfect. I Use a max coupler exclusively on and off road. Gas cans mounted on the trailer Extra gas is always carried...

We've towed our trailer for 30,000 miles. 10000 this year alone. We've left the trailer hitched and unhitched in various gas stations, parking lots, campgrounds, and dispersed sites. We'll set up a game camera at campsites, but no one has yet been caught walking up to it after 8 years of travel...
