most of the issues ive dealt with where in the Marines. 8 cases of Heat exhaustion, 1 heat stroke, 2 cases of HAPE. and was the first to act on a Negligent discharge into another's right arm. surprisingly no hypothermia or frost bite from the artic or winter training. we where short Corpsman so...

sure its 30k but look at its competition... 15-25k cheaply built stuff and the 40-80k niche (black series) or luxury trailers. i think ORV has a good balance of offroad capability, build quality, price, ect. yeah, single axle would end up with a ton of tongue weight. how high is your...

they have shorter ones... just not bunks. i actually dont see many RVs/TTs/ect in storage around here. i think thats more of a west coast thing. the vast majority are in peoples driveways year round. right now i could park a 30ft trailer my 22ft long truck and my wifes cherokee in the single...

Im looking at the Creekside 21DBS. im not too concerned with the weight driving ¾ton diesel and planning on it being more of a base camp. height/length/width are their own problems i already cant do some trails with my Crewcab longbed lol. an under 20ft bunkhouse id be all over. it doesnt look...

i live in deer country... thankfully haven't hit a deer with my Ram but i hit alot with locomotives. and I know its a matter of time with all my back country driving. had a 2017 Silverado take a deer through the radiator right in front me on tbe interstate last year. im looking at IronBull's...

well my Husky i have to lash up to the big oak tree in our backyard so hes always on a leash on a trip... we attach both of our dogs to either a good tree or my truck tho.

Outdoors RV or Northwood (both owned by the nash family). between the 2 of them you should find something in your size...

I've been doing a ton more research since my last comment and basically sold myself on an Outdoors RV. they are better built, with much sturdier materials, better suspension, 4 season ready (huge bonus), and much larger tanks. and the ultimate selling point, the wife likes it... unfortunately...

i dont have anything to offer that hasnt already been said on the tongue weight discussion. but when im towing i usually just find a semi and scoot in behind them if im on a highway/interstate. gladly take a small mpg increase from a semi draft, and who cuts off a guy just to get right behind a...

Ive been using this Cabela's Alaskan Guide 4man tent for 3 or 4 years now. The 6 man is about $450. Full rainfly, roomy, fairly tall for it's size. Found a raving review/YouTube video of a couple of guys on a hunting trip in Alaska getting dumped on in high winds sold me on it. I've had it up...

It's not really any different for me. I just bring my big cooler and a bit more dry ice. The only thing I could see potential in doing is putting a bed hoist on my truck to bleed out a deer if I'm not breaking it down in the field.

I'm still using that Chinese Mosin as my normal Truck gun but added a Mossberg 500 12ga for trips. Finally broke down and said 115years is long enough and retired the old side-by-side. Who knows how many deer that old girl has taken. She'll just have to look good in my collection now.

I get smoked bacon in 10lb boxes from our local butcher shop. Costs a bit more than the store bought stuff but so good. Local meat always tastes better ?

The biggest problem for me, is that every nice off-road trailer is loaded up with "luxury" bull?. I don't need or want fine leather, I don't even want a TV or wifi. I don't need or want all the extra trimmings. I want a basic, capable travel trailer, with a decent pricetag. And having a young...

I'm kinda looking for the same thing. Staying a bit limited on pricetag. Things like a black series are out of the question. And on top of that we are limiting it to a "bunkhouse" style thanks to a young/potentially growing family. But I really don't have to worry about weight considering my tow...
