Those trailers are a nice. I bet you told junior he could pull it behind the quad, "IF" he picked up garbage[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] as he drove circles around the property[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] No wonder you need to do a dump run.

Pretty slick thinking dad[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
actually MD, it's hilarious. he'll work all day if he can drive something, quad, tractor, mower, whatever.

the camper needs about 1 day of work.

That's even better[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

Are you going to try the cab-over before you get rid of the tt? Or just saying the heck with it[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] and go for broke with a new set-up?

ya, new set-up. enclosed trailer like a Wells Cargo. i'll throw some bunks in the enclosed trailer, and maybe a window. i know the TT space will be missed. but this set up will be shorter, and allow us in more places. the quads are getting bigger and heavier, and i think the alum quad deck has become a tad small, plus it seems like a lot of weight on the truck (i mean with all the quads). also, can always pitch a tent too. but none of that is gonna replace the luxury of a 30' TT.

Your right, the 30' tt will be missed. I think[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] you will be looking to get another one, after a few trips and the complaining THAT will be heard[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] But, for the same things you mentioned. Size of quads and access to some areas. I am re-thinking about my choices on trailers. IF it was only Pismo, then the one I have already chosen, is the choice. However, going to the Sierras and say Hollister OHV. I am limited in the areas it will go. Especially the heigth of a 5th wheel. I'd probably end up tearing the a/c unit off[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

just put the new mc/atv lift in the garage. man, this thing takes up a bit of room. but it sure is gonna be sweet to work at 48" height, instead of breaking my back the way i was before. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

A few weeks ago, I saw a piece of metal against a tree that had a "free" sign on it. I stopped and looked at it, and thought, Hhmmmm, that would make a great welding table[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] After lugging it into the back of the PSD[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img] It's been sitting on the side of the house[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Next week, I'm going to get whatever metal I need, to make legs for it and turn it into a working metal table[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Just wish it wasn't 105 degree weather[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Makes working in the garage or outside a bear[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
