New Trailer
Picked up this trailer last month in Vancouver BC. It was turn key - which was important as it was 1800 miles away from home and I wanted to use it on the trip home.
Stock
With new wheels/rubber.
And with my JK
Tires are 265/75/17s - so slightly smaller than the 33s on the JK. But they'll work for now. Ammo cans will be coming off, and I'd eventually like to change out the lid (open from side vs front). Will eventually add electrical and water systems. Also want to paint it silver to match the JK... but am having too much fun using it. After picking it up, camping and toured around (visiting family) for 3.5 weeks. Stayed in the tent roughly half that time. Have been back home for a week now, but am heading out camping for the weekend, and plan on doing a lot more for the rest of the summer.
Some shots from my trip:
Camping in Seattle
Camping in Lynden WA
Overlooking Harrison Lk BC
Haven't wheeled with it yet... but that's coming.
Anyway, just wanted to share.

Thanks. Am really happy with it. I got home on Thursday night after a long ass drive, and by Friday afternoon I wanted to go back out camping already! But after being away for almost 4 weeks, decided to get some things done around the house instead.

I got lucky with this, as while I see them for sale all the time (expo/camping trailers in general) they're always too far away, too expensive, or both. This one (while pricy) was reasonable, and being sold relatively near by, and within a couple weeks of when I was going to that city... and it was turn key... it couldn't have worked out any better.
The only way I sell this is for something a tad bigger (teardrop?). I love camping, and hate packing up camp and sleeping on the ground... this makes that a non issue.
