After a month of reading (more like looking at) this thread, I finally got through every page and trailer here. I want a trail trailer pretty bad, I'm just not sure I need one. Having a pick up has it's benefits. Dilemmas
Lator......

I agree I have a 2500HD crew cab with a 6' bed and all I put in it when I go places is groceries and luggage.
I use the trailer for camping gear, coolers, water, and love having a matching trailer. It gets the looks when I am driving down the road
and I get stopped at gas stations and asked what it is all about. It is fun! I don't need it but I love it!
I collect toy trains but this is much more fun and gets me and the family out in the world to explore.

First time out with the teardrop and side tent/room. Great camping at Liberty, WA. Trailer dropped-off for paint this morning - silver top and black sides. :)

Yes. This was that night. We tried to go from Warren to Big Creek but the top 200 yds of the pass had too much snow so we camped on the SF Salmon. Then backtracked to 55 to Deadwood through Bear Valley over to Stanley Lake. We wanted to ride the next morning or we would have stayed around Deadwood. Any idea if there is any good mountain biking in the Deadwood area? I'm not so familiar with that area.

Not real familiar with that area myself so not sure on the mountain biking, but the fishing isn't bad. You pulled over to take a swim and I was admiring your truck and trailer while out on the lake fishing. Told my daughter "you know I think we need a Landcruiser". She agrees.
 
Gidday Folks,

There's some work gone into the trailers on this thread, you can see why the camper trailer companies charge so much for their product! Must be the Scottish (cheap?) blood that led me to make my own. Plus I love the smell of burning metal and can't seem to stay away from the welder. . .

You see very few camper trailers down under here in New Zealand, I've maybe seen a dozen on my travels, and the higher end commercial models cost anywhere up to NZD65,000.

I made mine out of an ex-MOD trailer that I changed to Range Rover hubs and home made axle; steel block home made version of the Treg coupling; gear lockers on the sides and spare wheel front and rear; 40 litres of water running via hose to my version of a Drifta plywood slide out kitchen. Matched the trucks 35" BFG MTs with a set of 35" ATs.

Most of the tracks in NZ tend to be very tight and in the bush, but this thing has been dragged over most of the North Island; mud, mountains, beach and farmland.

Cheers

Griff
