They should make the enclosure extend the lenght of the trailer and have a drop gate like other toy haulers.

Yeah 10 large is a bit much for a trailer witha camper bolted to it! I like the concept though. The pop out and the patio ext. is nice too!

Psycho, Elsancho and Blue said it best.

Dont leave the babies out in the rain...............and what about the chainsaw, and the airtank, the spare tire, chest protector, boots, helmets, and all the other crap suppose to go (without the enclosed luxury).

The manufacturer needs to read this post...

I live here in Ohio and the weather changes all the time. So the hot enclosed part of the trailer doesn't bother me. Our quad get to muddy. Let it rain!. Helps me clean them.

As for the riding gear, this thing has two storge areas. Plus most of us have truck with tool boxes, put your riding gear there.

Strap the chainsaw the the hood, just like a deer.

If this Pak Rat is around 10,000 with the sleeping area and canvas tent cover for the cargo area, this is a sweet deal. All the enclose trailers with two quad storage are $13,000+.

It is a good idea, especially for someone who gets their machines muddy. It would not be a bad alternative. But they should have made the cargo space 12' long, then you could put three full size quads on there sideways.

Then make the living area about 12', so you have a 24' long camper then.

I would not trade my 28' camper for one, but it is not a bad idea. They will probably do fairly well. But I would have gone bigger.

my buddy bought his 18' Carson Toy Hauler fully enclosed for less than 10K. I hope to buy it from him when he gives in to his wifes desire for a bigger one. LOL. he has a short one. lol.

The good thing is that it s light so you don't need a big truck to pull it with. If it were enclosed it would be just like the other toy haulers (heavier and more $$$). Also, if the quads are dirty then you don't have to worry about getting the inside messy. If you are worried about rain you could easily strap a tarp over the quads. Personally, I think it is a good idea.
