This is licensed as a 16 but it’s 14. If I needed more room I’d be taking the bus and trailer at over 60ft. f*** that! Done with that crap except the big weekends.
What size truck are you pulling it with? I have two half tons and would prefer to stick with something they could handle... the ecoboost doesn’t worry me but I won’t have it but a couple years longer and will replace with an suv. My work truck is an anemic 5.3 Silverado and it’s gunna struggle
Yeah.. I initially thought 16’ enclosed and be done. Then I got to thinking of 2 machines and still having room for storage. Blah blah blah.. it never f***ing ends!
Two machines complicate lol. We also have two but for us if we go a distance to ride we could pull light trailer if needed. Ang and I usually meet up at different times and her xterra could easily pull the Wolverine or load it in the truck. She gets more time off then I do, before I’d run the bus up for her and she’d drive the dodge pulling everything then I’d head back home. Now she will take the box with Pioneer and bikes, I can take truck with Wolverine later.
I agree!!Two machines complicate lol. We also have two but for us if we go a distance to ride we could pull light trailer if needed.

But bottom line if we go for a day trip or just us we can take one rig no trailer with all our stuff and tools etc. Small wheel base and ground clearance so no issues.
Camping 20-30 times a year the big ol bus with trailer gets old as hell! We built it when we had 5 of us with lots of friends that needed space and all dirt bikes. Bus did that. Things change. We started tent camping again. I DONT WANT A MASSIVE RIG EVER AGAIN! It keeps you from going out as much down the road. I see it all the time where people start small and enjoy things then keep upsizing and they lose why they went out. I’m going back to easy. f*** it! Back to the basics and camping
Hell to the yes! Licensed and insured.
Do it !Hell to the yes! Licensed and insured.
Well kinda “street legal”...my kids have talked me into straight pipe and a larger turbo we have laying around and an intercooler. But that’s for later
Aim small, miss small. Other than not having an internal shower, My rig is nearly perfect in size for me and the Dag.Two machines complicate lol.

I totally agree with this. I'd take an 87 Chevy 2500 with the dial radio in a heartbeat.Two machines complicate lol.

The plan was to have an easy vehicle to do that. The plan is working! Ang wants to for Mothers Day so we’re trying
