Awesome update! Congrats!

On a build several years ago, on a pickup, I built to allow the tailgate to remain while using double rear doors. This allowed easy access through one door with the option of full width bed access as well. I could load an atv with both doors open. I enjoyed the tailgate "porch". I also like the...

Coopers are great tires! An all season vs all terrain will likely meet your needs just fine, that's what my Dad runs without any trouble. (similar use, also coastal Carolina). You could look to pick up a set of light tire cables as insurance.

Upgrading axle, tongue, and adding on to the sides will likely cost as much when done as buying a heavier more suitable trailer from the start.

All of your projects seem to be progressing well ! Keep up the good work, we'll be waiting for baby pics!

What an awesome trailer! Not only functional but eye catching as well. I had one similar years ago. After seeing this, now I may have to build another! On the chilly part. I have found it to be far warmer and more comfortable to use a foam mattress rather than air. The trifold type beds are...

Nice project! I'll be watching for updates.

For years I used a 12 foot stock trailer, then a 16 foot aluminum goose neck, as dual purpose trailers. Horses were hauled and unloaded then the trailer used to camp in. The 12 footer was very basic, a box to put cots in. The 16 foot gooseneck with two compartments allowed for building out the...

I really enjoy your updates. Both the truck projects and the trip reports. Beautiful trout! and the scenery is spectacular. Your area is now on my "visit one day" list A couple questions; I am intrigued by your ice fishing reports. No opportunity here in Georgia for that, but it may be an...

I never get tired of reading about your adventures. Love the pictures. Maybe one day I'll be ready to get some advice on ice fishing from you.

It's great to see an update on this! And I'm glad to hear it is serving you well and spending more time on the road than in the shop. Thank you for the update, we will be watching for more, on this and the ambo.

I look forward to your updates. I have always used trucks or suvs to travel and camp. This is a very different concept for me, but interesting. Some things cross over well, however. The advice on streamlining tool kits is great. Our Samurais only need a 10,12, and 14 mm wrench. Wish other...

Very nice build! I am looking forward to your updates as you enjoy it.

You're off to a great start! I will look forward to updates as you progress. I may even steal an idea or two from time to time for my 89.

Very nice! Your camper turned out very well and I have learned quite a bit from your write up. Thank you for posting this. The use of adhesive is intriguing ,as the fabric work can be intimidating. I'll have to look into this a bit more. I hope you and your family are able to enjoy this camper...
