Looks like a fine rig... What does it have on the insides? Does it have a garage?
Do yourself a favor and check the wheel bearings and brakes before you get too far from home.

I use "Bearing Buddies" on my trailer.
Pack 'em full of grease and go. They're a bit messy at times, but you will have the piece of mind that your not going to blow a bearing and get stuck. That may be over kill for most, but then again - I tend to pull my rig thru anything...and have to replace the external plumbing at least once a season due to being broken off!!! LOL!!! Does anyone know if you can "flip" the axels on a trailer from being UNDER the springs to being ON TOP of the springs? I gotta get me some more clearance - or a new rig. I'm getting way to good at working on my trailer's waste tanks & valves.

Do you have any pics of the inside?

Buzzy - The whte stripes are actually the straps from the towing mirrors. they lok hokey, but they work. Cowboybob mentioned a set he uses from Campingworld. Hopefully he'll chime in and shed some more light on them for me. The look a little nicer.
I actually picked the trailer up the day before New Years, that's why the wreath is still on my truck. It's off now. I took down all of my decorations new years day including the wreath.
Nick - YOU still owe me a trip to the Key's, don't think for a SECOND I forgot about that !!
59 - I bought it from a guy in Croydon
Greg - Yeah, I don't think it has bearing buddies. I just picked it up and towed it down to my parents in Maryland for the winter. I'll look into it in the spring
KenZ - Yep, as yo can see it's a bunkhouse. My ladyfriend has a few RATS that travel with us. I used to put up tents for them, but it get's old doing it every weekend with no help ( they tend to dissapear to the pool when it's work time ) They also had a tendency to sneak into my other trailer in the middle of the night. RATS !!!!
Aero - I've been to a bunch of campgrounds, but for some reason I always find myself going back to the Yogi Bear campgrounds. They always have stuff to do and they are very well kept. I plan on taking it from my parents house in the spring and taking it to a Yogi not too far from my house and leaving it there for the summer ( cause I don't have a place for it at my house ) I'll tow it from there to other campgrounds throughout the summer if we don't just stay at that one.
Somebody else asked me how much it cost me. I spent 5K on it. So far I spent another 200 to replace all of the tires as they looked like originals. The guy threw EVERYTHING in as they were done camping. It came with all of the dishes, pots pans, flashlights, walkies, tools, a brand new battery, new can of roof paint, you name it. I have no idea what blue book is on it, but I'm happy with it. It is paid in full which will make useing it much more enjoyable.
