    LC deck plate for storage

The catch is, I'd like to be able to quickly remove the fridge and throw the seats down. Currently, both seats are in but...

    Anyone have any experience with Patriot Campers out of Australia

    I've emailed them twice directly through their website and have gotten no response. I'd like to at least talk to them as both the wife and I are very interested in one of these. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    What is your favorite belt?

    M.O.A.B trailer vs. Turtleback trailer

    Right off the bat I'd say the Moab is a much better looking trailer. It looks planned out as opposed to boxes bolted to boxes. However I do like that the turtleback has an inyati coating. I had that on top my tool boxes of my service truck. That stuff is durable. They have comparable...
