I've always used a super siphon for fuel transfer. So you rest the water can on the fender when siphoning?

Just did a couple of things to the trailer today. Added a magnetic paper towel rack to the fold down table frame.
Mud flaps. I think it is just considerate to have mud flaps to try to mitigate the amount of rocks and mud being kicked up.

I have not tried it with this trailer but it will work like that, as long as the supply tank is elevated above the receiving tank. It takes about 2 minutes to transfer 5 gallons.
That’s what I did the last time I moved the trailer. The previous trailer had hand brakes and I think that convenience made me lazy, but I think the more I use this trailer with out them, the less I will want to spend the money for them. I might get a quote just out of curiosity.

Depends on which tanks you buy, specifically. Mine seem to be around 26 lb.
I always, always, always use wheel chocks. Both directions, often.

Whats the height of the hitch? Just want to make sure I am sitting as level as I can when I go to pick up.
Also, what are you guys using for insurance, i currently have state farm.

Be sure to go over your trailer before you leave. Have them test the heater, windows, vent, check the spare tire for wheel locks, door seal. Mine door is lopsided so only one side latches completely and it leaks. Mark says he will replace it when we head to Alaska.
Be sure the fridge tray has been modified so the fridge is not resting on the power plug. It will probably be wired up incorrectly but you can fix that later.
My tongue sits at 24" at the top of the ball. I have farmers insurance.

Mounted some Alu Boxes to the top of the fridge/battery box . I didn't want to drill down through the boxes and be able to remove them so I used Eze Awn Alu Box box mounts.
I'll store kitchen stuff in in the P/S box and RV park stuff like water hose and extension cord in the D/S box.
