A Work in Progress

Im still waiting to get my annual statement from my last job... getting impatient over here!! I already have all my parts priced out.. All I'm seeing $$$$$ because of course I'm going to change everything. I may need a new bumper as well. Mine is pretty tweaked after looking at it more.

Thats a nice trailer! How does the taco do pulling it? I have pulled an empty horse trailer with mine but I wouldn't do a loaded horse trailer

 

Our trucks will do 6500 lbs (I don't really want to pull over 5500) but that trailer is 3100 dry..after beer, campin shit, beer, water, and beer it'll be about 4000 plus.

I haven't pulled anaything heavier than about 1500 to 2000 lbs so far and you can't even feel that at all.

Havent pulled that^^^one yet....I'll get it in May or June.

 

ah okay lighter then I thought. My horse trailer is 3500. Horses are about 1000-1200lb each so that would be pushing it!

I bet your excited about that trailer. Is it a toyhauler?

 

I think my dads horse trailer loaded is around 5500. I'd try it.

No...I looked at a toy hauler but decided to use the bed for quad. This trailer has bunks and a queen size bed and another bed area so we can get the 3 kids sleeping comfy. It's 23 foot so it aint real long. STOKED!!!!

I didn't think i'd ever get out of a tent. I love tents but with 3 kiddos this will be much easier and setup time will be mere minutes instead of an hour. That's more time to chill and drink beer.

 

That's awesome! I always tent camp. or sleep in the canopy or truck bed depending on weather.

I looked into getting a trailer over last summer but it was going to one for my powerstroke to pull. I decided to wait a little longer but its still a maybe since I might need one to live out of. But thats still in the maybe stage depending on my work situation.

 

We have a big memory foam pad that goes in the bed of the truck. Spent lots of summer weekends (without the kids) sleeping in the bed of the truck. GOOD TIMES!!!

 

I LOVE camping in the bed of the truck during the summer. i just have a blow up mattress that I use. Its the best.

My last camping trip was in October with the horses tho so the taco stayed home heres a couple pics though We camped until we ran out of food for the horses it was over a week lol

This was by far my most favorite camping trip so far.

All this camping talk is really making me wanna go... hmmmm

 

^^nice


I love camping. With this trailer we figure we will double or triple our yearly trips. Gonna snow camp too.

 

I'm down in Auburn and there are a few of us in this area. I know Troy was talking about moving down this way too.

 

ya Im now thinking I want to go snow camping one weekend. I know a few closer places to make a weekend trip out of. now just gotta find ppl to go

 

Im Thinking about it. but I have 2 major problems. Horses and a Rottweiler. Trying to find a place to rent to accommodate both might be a joke. So I might have to wait until I can buy a place again and get it in a more central area. But that all a couple years away. I really like Monroe and Duvall so moving away from there might be hard.

 

Don't you love PNW?! Such a beautiful area. I'm from Oregon. I am in the process of deciding what color to plasti my emblems. I'm leaning towards plum crazy purple (over black maybe for a darker purple...not too dark though). What do ou think of that, as a fellow chick? I was set on murdering my truck, but I'm a girl and we need a little color! Don't we? Haha truck is looking good sister! Love black tacos!

 

wow that's awesome!!! I find it interesting how you can set up the little mobile area for the horses to stay in.

 

I don't think she is the kind of girl to ask that question to... She's kind of a tomboy.

 

Of course we need color! Im with ya on the murdered out look but I added the pink just to be different and I love it. LOVE LOVE LOVE the PNW I dont think ill ever leave!

Ya my horses are pretty respectful of fences, some aren't and you have to bring metal panels or put electric fence up. Mine just see the fence and stay away I love camping with the horses. We can go so far.

 

haha me??? noooooo I did grow up with 3 big brothers. So they may or may not have influenced my ways a lil

 

A tomboy with pink accent. I'm a tomboy as well.

 

I built horse fencing (split rail) last summer, had to surround 2 acres worth...shit more work then i wanted to do haha he's a 16hand paint.

 

very nice my boys are brothers and they are appaloosas. The one pictured alone is 17hh and the other is only 15.3. I have done my fair share of fencing but Im sure ill have much more to do in the future lol
