Nice trailers everyone. Myself I just piked up a 99 Terry 24' 5er last year after getting soaked in a tent @ a racing event. I like it so far. Been nice to have. Have some camp sites booked this year so going to try that out. It has a small crank out on the left side, couch moves out. While looking I saw a similar one without the crank out deal and it really seems to make a difference. Also had a rear hitch added so I can tow my 14' Lund fishing boat. :smilewinkgrin:
Awesome, I wish we could tow tandem in NY, my wife does not want to tow the boat but has no choice,

We can but my rig is too long to do it legally. 40' max.
06bowtie_guy, congrats, it sure beats a tent and can be very addicting.

Ok! you're an addict! (insert smart ass smilie here)
Really, I originally bought mine mostly for me and my daughter to get away now and then but my new GF likes to camp so we have been going alot lately. 2-3 weekends a month. I was talking to a neighbor camper last saturday and he was asking some questions about my 8X20 patio mat which I love because I am always barefoot. I started noticing all of the add on's I have done in the last 2 years and could not even begin to guess how much I have spent including all of the outdoor game set's. So far it has been worth every penny. I have met some really cool people and a couple asshats along the way. Overall, it is a great experience and I know my 7 yr old daughter will never forget the times she spent with dad camping

I could not agree more, the time with my wife and the boys is what it is all about.

I love the trailer.. except when they loaded a 650 john deere dozer on it (19,750) And it blew out ALL the tires on the trailer on the side of the road. :mad2:
We had to move it right down the road when i took the pic.. We aint that redneck.. haha

Put on the damn helmet day........
yes i know it was overweight....
yes i know the trailer max cap wasn't designed for it....
yes i know it looks empty in the pic (cos it is)....
and yes.... i'll most likely do it again.... please refrain from any potential ass chewings on the basis that it most likely will not make a damn bit of difference.... :smilielol5:
had this thing loaded today with 21 14ftx24" steel I beams.... trailer grossed a little over 17k..... i knew it was back there. kinda wagged the truck around a little, but it handles it fine.
