Adventure Trailers Chaser #15

[Gear]

Hello All, Just thought I would share my one night adventure with you guys. The Chaser #15 finally got a chance to play in the dirt. We left San Diego and headed out to Anza Borrego. It was Hot and I loved it! The trailer as usual far exceeded my expectations. There were times when I all most forget it was there! Loved the extra storage space and because the Jeep was empty it actually seemed to ride better. I have posted a lot of photographs mainly because I feel a picture is worth a lot more than words. So enjoy and let me know what you think.

Que -- Like I tell the kind people of Mexico. I don't understand. I think you are asking where are the photographs. Sorry I hit too many buttons to fast and had to go back and edit it.

Great shots! That's a great looking setup, what kind of mpg do you get pulling that trailer??

[kcowyo]

Nice!! :bowdown:

Great looking trailer. It really compliments the Rubicon very well. Nice job on putting together such a cool outfit!

Love this pic - (http://share.shutterfly.com/action/slideshow?a=67b0de21b33f342f450c&auto=0&idx=25&m=1&d=1153518294001)

So may I ask what the flat rack on top of the Jeep is for?

[SinCity4r]

Nice shots. :clapsmile Thats a really slick stove mount..

Ryanmb21 Great shots! That's a great looking setup, what kind of mpg do you get pulling that trailer??
I honestly do not know what the milage with the trailer is. This Rubicon is highly modified with 4:88 gears and 35" tires. So before the trailer I was getting 11 mpg. Do to the fact that I have taken all of the weight out of the Jeep and simple put it into the trailer I believe I should be able to get close to the same. For me it is not a matter of mpg but rather can I go 200 miles before filling up again.:smiley_drive:


kcowyo So may I ask what the flat rack on top of the Jeep is for?
Of course, the rack on the top of the Jeep is the second custom rack I have had made. The first one was on my 97 Wrangler. I use it for moving just about anything I can put on top (ie couch, wood, Thule box). It also serves as a double sun shade for the desert and a single shade for when the Jeeps top is off and the windshield is down. The center section tubes are Yakima sized so all of my bicycle, kayak and Thule box just bolt right up. Up until I got the trailer I would put a Thule Rocket box on one side and then sleep on the otherside. Worked out great! I can remove the rear cross bars and slide the hard top right out the back. I personally could not live with a Jeep without such a rack. I also like the fact that I can mount lights, CB, VHF radio on the rack. Here are some pictures of the Jeep with the rack in use.

I really like those LED lights inside the trailer.

This is my favorite shot from the trip.

With the badlands in the background it looks like I'm driving on the moon. Plus I had a great time towing the trailer on this part of our adventure. Having very little experience towing a trailer I sure was impressed with its handling.

The Moon?

That's a sweet set up you've got there Gear, Looks like have in mind exactly how you want it and what you need it for!

:arabia:

[Gear]

Thanks for the complements Louis. Your right, I sure did not buy it for the great gas milage. If I am to own a Jeep it needs to be able to haul stuff. With the addition of the Chaser I can now lighten up the roof rack. http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6da36b3127cce8821d18faac500000026108EatWzFu0cO

Now I mainly use the rack as a sitting platform, photography, and a source of shade when the windshield is down.

Baja 1000 - 2005

[LexusAllTerrain]

Great pictures, do you have any more of the Baja 1000?
I hope i get to see your Trailer in action soon!:victory:

[Gear]

Here are a couple of good ones. The first 4 shots are actually the Baja 500 2006. The Baja 1000 shots are the last 4. Miles and I had to much fun driving the Baja 1000 course the day before that we ended up going to far down(Matao Wash). This lead to watching most of the action in the dark. Although we have a tendancy to hang out at the Honda pits.
