    I'll have to go back and look, but we installed some window units in some of our utility buildings that were smaller than the 10,000 btu because of that 3600 watt start up just in case we needed to run them off our trucks for whatever reason. I wanna say they are somewhere around 7500 btu or maybe smaller and they do a heck of a job. The buildings are concrete so they stay 75 deg when it's triple digits outside....but something like a 7500 btu unit, you could hang meat in a small trailer.

    Some guy (snowbird) just put 2 up for sale made out of 5 gallon buckets...all the responses from the locals are laced with laughter and ridicule. I'd imagine something like that may work in Wisconsin. Here you'd just end up with a high speed bucket of water.

    You guys are killing me with all the camping trailer stuff. I’m looking at converting a cargo trailer some day. Don’t really need AC, but it would be nice. Anything would be an upgrade from this. It can get pretty cozy in the back of the truck with mama.61B9BBA7-F256-4455-AA7F-A8F7F0759531.jpg

    Everyone has different ideas. I subscribe to a bunch of different pages for everything camping. Campers, trailers, buses, vans...just scouring for ideas. There is some head scratching like "wtf were they thinking?". Gotta read past the drama and bs, but I've either picked up or re-affirmed some ideas that are pretty cool.

    HiLO trailer but I think someone else makes them now too. Get much better gas mileage with your tow vehicle with them. Expensive and the cables to lift them do break. Pretty nice rigs from the ones I have seen though.

    You know how it is. Everything in motion, the moment of recognition was just a touch late and about the time my finger went into the jaw I knew it was going to hurt. I must have washed my hand 10 times before I realized that bruise is not coming off. Then trying to cut my morning eggs with the side of the fork was futile and painful...just gotta shake your head.

    One of my clients came back yesterday, so I'm going to his house to give him his house keys, check the one house I have left then come home and perform surgery. I have a finger guard in my first aid kit I'm going to put on before I leave....I must have hit every door handle in the house already.
