    Default A neat collection of "working" camping trailers

    I used to swerve around my hallucinations, now I drive right through them.

    Saw that the other day here. He has a stupendous collection of stuff, bet he's got some neat stories behind each one. I find it so amazing whats come and gone... just to come back again. Roof Top tents for example I think visiting this gentleman and his goods would make a killer Overland Journal article

    It is surprising what a man can do when he has to, and how little most men will do when they don't have to.

    Now that you mention it, I did see that thread, but didn't recognize the link. Sorry for the repost!
    I thought I remembered another thread on related trailers and had thought to post this link there, but didn't find it with an admittedly very quick search.

    --That station wagon tent, looks just like my Xterra HATCH TENT--

    Its cool enough to deserve a couple reposts

    I'm serious about the OJ article, I really think it would be a cool read to see a new trailer (AT for example) sitting side by side with its 70 year old counterpart on a Baja beach!
