Costco - Lifetime® Camping Tent Trailer

Costco this year and last year knocked $500 off for March only which is $1000 off the Lifetime direct purchase -price. Very nice trailer two full size bed - beds very basic but made very well. Can't even see the **** thing when its behind the OB. You can haul any sort of gear on the top deck. Have a camping trip coming up - picked up a roof top cargo bag cheap and will simply toss it on the deck of the trailer with some gear stowed in it.

We also have a small 130lb 12ft sailboat we haul with the trailer just sits on the deck with some foam pads under it.

Fattabot pics coming when I have a chance to sort out how to post them here.

First quickie trip report. San Francisco to Santa Rosa for gear drop off don't ask super complicated effort to go on our camping trip. 25mpg 65mph and under on flat roads with the 4X6 life time tent trailer loaded with one of those large heavy canvas roof bags packed with camping basics 140lbs. 1 kids wagon strapped down + 3 camp chairs. Estimated weight 1000lbs total. Trailer is 12ft long from ball to tail lights. and 5ft wide tire to tire.

Santa Rosa to Mendocino Ca roughly 3hrs on coastal roads Highway 128 - handled great 23-24mpg with the hills.

Mendocino Ca to Albee campground Humbolt Redwood St park - 3hrs with some steep climbs 3000-3500rpm to do 60mph on the climbs - mileage dropped to 23mpg.

Final trip home 101 25.5mpg at arrival at home.

More picts to follow this evening.

Oh and the trailer worked great nice place to crash after a long day hiking and playing.

CA DMV is having issues sorting out how to classify the trailer. Pain in the ASS! Now on third trip to DMV with trailer for them to get their act together.

Interesting discovery - seems this old desktop chokes up with the new SD card from the new camera. Back to the drawing board.

The boat is the other tow rig which has seen far far more miles behind both my old subaru and the new one. Sold the boat and miss it but moving on to new things ie toys.
By the way by far the most amazing trailer to tow hands down towed awesome behind every car we towed it with. 75+ across Nevada with a Yukon never even knew it was there. The only catch was the 8.5ft width made for major driver stress on narrow lanes.
