I agree, for a single person or a couple they are hard to beat, a third person when necessary can be done but it’s not ideal. You could of course forgo the bath and get the double bunks to sleep four and there’s the Heritage model that when equipped without the bath can sleep six but for 95% of...

It's nice to see you making some quality improvements to a retail trailer. I have a buddy with one and even though it is more of a mass produced stick and staple style trailer his has been holding up pretty well to boon docking off-road. I understand making concessions on off-road durability and...

Yea, the open air RV slots are damn near worthless to me. The Tremor is great, definitely serves the purpose I bought it for but not as nice of a daily. There will be another Cruiser in the garage in time, just have to see what exactly that will be haha. I still check in over there from time to...

I have done lots of towing with both full-size and mid-size SUV's and full-size trucks. If towing I prefer a truck, they almost always tow better than an SUV. I prefer a truck bed for the dirty, stinky, wet stuff I'd never want inside of my vehicle and no matter how big your SUV is, the cargo...

Thanks, it's just a boat storage rental. I have a few of them in that facility, this one houses the camper and motorcycle trailer along with a few kayaks and hitch mounted items. It's nice to have your stuff out of the elements completely and away from prying eyes. There's electrical hook-ups in...

It's going to look bada$$ in white.

Agreed, fiber glass was the only option in my eyes. There are some great options out there, Scamp, Escape, Big Foot, Oliver, Cortes, BackPack, Snoozy, etc.

I remember seeing my first one some 16-17 years back and I've wanted one ever since. It's just the two of us so it's perfect.

Between the lift and the new larger tires, 'Chancho' gained about 4.5" in ground clearance today. I am pretty happy with how it turned out, IMHO it's a major improvement in terms of ground clearance, approach and break over and just all-around looks. Four (4) new 7500lb jacks and mounting plates...

I recall it doing ok below 70 mph. Seems on the road at 70+ would give it a bit of waggle from time to time.

From four or so years back. They are indeed cool trailers.

I have a buddy who had an Arctic Fox but I never got to check it out before he sold it. He really liked it and said he'd own another. And I agree, the Oliver is a financial commitment I am just not ready to make considering I am not even certain this whole experiment will last or stick just yet...

Yea $40K for an Elite II is the deal of the century lol. New 2024 models with all of the upgrade options are now north of $100K, wild stuff. I am still keeping the possibility of an Oliver in our future open as we might find ourselves on the road in a part time capacity in a few years if...

Nothing too crazy or exciting here, just a commercial built fiberglass RV but since I plan to mod it a tad and use it to boon dock while on motorcycle trips and some hunting trips, I figured I'd start a build thread. We picked it up brand new, direct from the factory in Rice, TX (about 45 mins...

Scamp is a great trailer as well and they are getting better for 2024, more directly comparable to the Casita IMHO. The screw and staple stick job trailers are mostly junk and that's why I was only interested in a FGRV. It might be difficult for you to find a Casita up there in the heart of...

If I end up going down the route of the chassis up-fit then I'll have a matching hub and I can run the same wheels as the truck.

Both are great but the F150 Tremor would get the nod for me due to the better cab and what I perceive as the better engine overall.

I had a Katy's Closet with light installed in the Casita along with their bathroom storage shelf. Small adds but huge improvements in terms of storage and organization. Next up, lift and larger tires.

I have been considering installing the Yaesu FTM-500 DR in mine but I am not sold on the idea of having something mounted to the top of the dash. Which parts did you use for the USB and 12V hookups?

Yea I won't add much more to mine should I keep it for the long haul. Initially I said I'd give it a year and then reevaluate it's place and that has come and gone and I am still not ready to make a decision. So for now it'll continue to see use around town, at scooter rallies and rides and I...
