I had a first gen 2004 that I bought brand new in March of 2004. I put 280,000 miles on that truck, and the only issues I ever had were the seat fabric wearing out, and a busted radiator when I rolled over a rocky jeep trail a little too fast. Other than that, it was tires, fluid changes, break...

So, I am finally looking at putting together my M101a2 as a base camp for hunting trips and family camping trips. I have been waffling between a RTT, just using my giant 10 person turbo tent, or building some sort of enclosure on the camper. I do want to be able to allow the trailer to...

I picked up a 73qt on Friday for 190 bucks, and sold my Yeti 35 for 150 on Sat. haha. I now have a Yeti 45, Ozark Trails 73qt. and an old 120 qt. coleman. I think the Ozark Trail is reasonable enough, after all, it is just an insulated plastic box.. I am a little leary about the longevity...

I went and looked, the local Wally world here had one of the 73 quart coolers for $194 I was very close to pulling the trigger but didnt.. I have a 35 and 45 quart Yeti presently, and have been wanting a larger cooler that performs well. To be honest, the 35 quart Yeti is sort of useless to...

I spend alot of time in the high country here in Colorado. Merino wool is my favorite fabric. It has an incredible comfort range for temperature, not only keeping you warm in cool weather but it can feel cool in warm weather. Merino wool has a strange ability to not smell LOL. As a hunter...

Yeah, its a huge package for sure. I have the space in my trailer the size is not an issue. Having a 20x10 "cabin" anywhere I can drive my 4x4 and trailer is worth it to me and my uses. I cant wait to get it set up, my boy and I will be spending some time in Nebraska turkey hunting with it...

I just ordered and received the 10 person turbo tent yesterday. Man, this thing is a beast! I havent set it up yet, but upon initial inspection, I am really impressed with the overall quality and feel. This thing is going to make an awesome base camp for winter and fall hunting trips, as well...

I've been throwing around ideas for my trailer build. Its an M101A2. I like the idea of the rooftop tent, however, theres been several times when I am hunting, camping, fishing, etc. in Colorado, Montana, Wyoming, or Nebraska; where winds have been incredibly strong. I currently have a 6...

Guys, I bought an M101A2 earlier this summer, and its currently sitting in my garage. I am still contemplating exactly how I want to configure things, but one thing I do want to accomplish this winter, is new tires, re-pack bearings, and clean up and paint the frame and box. The trailer is...

OK, an update and some time to rant a little... I won an auction for an 87 M010a2 located in Arkansas. I am in Colorado. No biggie, I thought, I dont mind driving a long ways, I won the auction for $450. Well, I get in touch with the Govplanet guy, and he says he can only be there to...

So, I am going to pick up my new trailer next weekend. Its a M101A2, built in 1987. Its in good shape, but the carc paint is old and fading, and theres a bit of surface rust here and there.. I am in suburbia with not a whole lot of space other than the driveway and garage, to work on this...

I'm in Longmont, CO, the trailer is in Little Rock. So I have quite a road trip planned..

guys, I just won an auction on Gov Planet for a 1987 M101A2. So, the questions begin.... I have to pick it up by June 29, so I am planning a road trip next weekend to get it. I know I'll need to have some 12V lights, I'll have my tool kit with me. But from others' experiences, what are...

Thanks for the responses guys. I will definitely spend some more time researching a RTT and that route.

What's up, new guy here, found the site as I am bidding on a few M101 trailers on Govplanet. I really want something that can make family camping in the summer, and hunting trips in the fall, more comfortable. Use will mainly be in Colorado, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Montana. A few questions...
