New to Me Camping Trailer

misunderstood · 10-23-2008, 11:40 AM

If I don't hit a brick wall when I tell the wife tonight, I'm heading to Ohio tomorrow to pick up a motorcycle camping trailer. Been wanting an easy one to setup, take a look and see how simple for yourself. This I can handle.

I've always thought about getting one! That looks cool

Pretty cool....how long is the bed?

misunderstood · 10-23-2008, 01:07 PM

Bed area is @ 6'3" x 4'

You must purchase an item which is as much as, or more expensive then the camping trailer for your wife if you want approval.

Works for me.

That does look easy to set up.

Good Luck.

That's a very nice trailer! It appears to be a copy of the Combi-Camp from Denmark. I had a couple of those in the early 80's. You will really like the fact that all of your stuff stays inside the trailer so if it rains when setting up or taking down nothing really gets wet! If you get dual density foam and cover it for the bed you can leave your bed made up and just fold the trailer up. We had about 6 - 7" of room above the bed so we put everything in plastic totes that same height. Later on I build some drop in boxes that I recessed into the floor for more permanet storage ( pots / pans / cooking stuff) you then just lifted the front of the bed to get it out. Happy Camping!!!!!

Just got back from taking her to lunch and got permission. ;) She's as excited as me, so NO extra purchases neccesary.

They're hard to find and can be pricey. I found this one for $1000 ( a steal if you know what they go for )

Try the Delphi Motorcycle Trailer Towing forum. They have a "For Sale" section.
