    Self-built fiberglass trailer in Phoenix, Arizona [SOLD as of 4/7/22]

    I built this trailer approximately 11 years ago from the ground up. And I would first emphasize that this trailer is probably always going to be work in progress. Without question there are parts of this trailer that can and should be improved but everything works. I could hitch it up and spend...

    DIY Portable Solar Panel - Connector question included

    I enjoy tinkering with my trailer. It has this beautiful empty space beneath the tent that I just had to fill with something. I have two batteries that run the ARB 63 fridge (we love) and a water pump, etc. So I thought a solar panel would be a fun project. Being the desert nomad-types we...

    Nightly movie: kindle fire

    One of our camping concessions is to have available a nightly movie. All of us look forward to it. Typically there is no Wi-Fi so we are downloading one perhaps two movies to an iPad. Actually we do not purchase them, as we really use Amazon prime for just about everything including watching...

    Maybe the $80,000 Cadillac of Offroad Trailers

    I ran into ADAK Trailers at the Sportsmans Show in Phoenix. Very impressive build. At $70-80k, it should be I suppose. But having owned a $30k toyhauler that was/is useless offroad, I can see why it isnt sub $50k. One thing I noticed was that the entire rear-open kitchen sits high. For...

    Suggestions for monitoring a dual-battery system in trailer

    I'm finally adding a 12v refrigerator to our trailer. Thus far I had plenty of juice from my two batteries to run a water pump and a few LED lights for 7 nights. I better pay better attention now and am curious what people are using to stay on top of the consumption. I'm looking at the...

    Utility Body Trailer - Post Build Tour

    I regained my ExPo/overland itch in 2010. Prior I thought of it all as off-roading and camping. But its all the same to me. I went to school on this forum absorbing everything possible about trailer builds and vans. And so shame on me for not adding a trailer build when I finally started...

    Extending cellular coverage

    Curious if anyone has experience with the Wilson Dual Band Mobile Wireless Kit.? The price makes me pause ($250) but I see this as a big emergency preparation tool. The very short range of the interior cab transmission range. But I like the idea of somehow improving my AT&T coverage. Which...

    Seeking sealable silveware caddy

    Oddly I am striking out as I look for a tray such as below that has a lid. Doesnt need to be waterproof, just dust. Anybody have a source? If I didnt have 13 projects sitting in my garage I'd make a lid for this one as it's the exact size we need.

    Gratemates....is there a comprable stateside product?

    adding CB for family

    Our 9 yr old enjoys monitoring the 2m while we roam. I've decided to add a CB so he can participate better. As well I'm going to add a PA speaker behind the bumper. Curious if anyone is using the Cobra 29 (or similar) that also has the bluetooth function. This allows the mic to function as a...

    Nice trailer build for towing behind a van - well maybe.

    The redneck in me thinks this could be a pretty cool camping trailer to pull behind a van. Especially for those with a herd of kids. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Covered-Utility-Bed-Fiberglass-No-Reserve-/230611001493 Photos:
