Used the trailer a bit this weekend. Hauled the cooking and camping stuff out to the farm Sat. Sunday hauled an ATV for the mother-in-law.
Finally got a pair of rims for it to put some real tires and am finally motivated to start really doing something with it. Got 15 inch American Racing Outlaws for $30 for pair. Now to find some tires and then paint it up. Got a new wiring plug as well and need to mount safety chain better. Figure to get it dialed in then work on camper shell later. It was quite nice to have a truck bed to haul stuff and then get firewood with. Almost dont want the camper shell until it starts cooling off.
One pic from the weekend.

Thinking the bed will be black and the topper will be white. Just a cheap roll on paint job once I cut out the rust. My buddy is looking to see if he still has flares to help it look a bit better. I am actually working on it today, redoing some wiring and mounting toolbox and milk crates. Got a spare wheel and folding tire carrier. Mounting safety chains.
It is amazingly handy. Right before dark I hooked it up and ran to our property for some wood for a fire, just threw wood in it and pulled it right in yard near fire. Worked awesome. I found it still in the yard this morning. Looks like I was punishing the truck by putting it in the corner.

No real updates, but it has proven handy again recently. Hauling wood and kids random stuff around. Most recently I loaded it up with cooking equipment, coolers, and the daughters barbie jeep to see some friends new house. Pulled quite well and re-motivated me to finish fixing it up some. I used it as a windblock for the fryer when making chicken wings and the tailgate held more than a few beers throughout the day(wish the TB had one sometimes). Couple pics for fun.

My Burban has that set-up and I love it. I like 4runners just for the roll down rear window.

Damn it Kyle, I was supposed to enjoy those wings.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
