Said I was going to have to sell some stuff to offset the cost of the new trailer, sold my utility trailer today. Kinda wanted to keep it, bought it brand new two years ago. Told myself that it probably wouldn't get used much anymore and hate to see it sit there and rot.
Can always use the room and didn't take much of a hit on it either. ;) Trailer

@trigger Lemme know if'n ye needs a nice Whinnie the Pooh mural on the inside. It's awfully white in there.

It's not done yet. That paint is actually called silver bullet, just doesn't come across in the pics very well. Rubber base is black, floor is a grayish/whiteish, cabinet will be black and stainless, a couple more traction mats going in...it's all about contrast, you'll see. ;)
Btw, no Pooh but maybe Tigger. :D

Yep, need to move a curbing for straight shot in. Only 6 inches clearance. Just a few bags of quickcrete should do it. Gonna take some getting used to. LOL.

Found problem with bolt plates for tie downs underneath, going in for a warranty fix for an extended plate. Guess I’m picky to want it done right.

Pulled the machine in for the first time today to get a good location for the strap chocks that get bolted in. Also added two more traction mats for the rear tires to ride on. Didn't get a chance to tow it or test out the P5 due to having the sh**tiest weather ever. Rain, sleet, snow, freezing and then back to rain. Oh and 40 mph winds. Hope it's warm in TN. :cool:
Btw, have room to get all the way around the machine but that's about it, it filled it up in a hurry.

I understand the amount of space, security and usefulness of an enclosed trailer but I'd imagine your milage will suffer. Not a consideration I guess?
