Ken, she went and looked at the one in Torrance yesterday and guess what. Read her post above yours once again. The one just above yours. ;)

BTW.....I bought a 5X10 yoder toter from a guy in Torrance today.....it is about a year old and in top condition for about 6k....so I am sooo excited to get out and use it.

Congratulations on your new trailer!! It sounds like you got close to your target price and with Spring right around the corner, you are ready to camp. :thumbsup:

I don't know if you like to get "away from it all" when you camp, but there are a lot of gatherings all thoughout California, Arizona, Utah and such. Hmmmm, I wonder why there isn't one here in Nevada? Oh yeah, because Ken and I haven't organized one..... :lol:

The gatherings are a lot of fun to attend. Lots of good food, neat trailers and fun folks.

Have fun!

I will stay in touch here in the Southwest section of the forum now that I have my trailor.
I would love to try and make it out to an event, I need to give myself more down time. I have an extremely busy schedule this year, 6 aerobatics competions in the south west U.S. (and lots of practice)....Rookie racing school in June, the Reno Air Races in Sept.....
I was looking at 30 nights of hotel bills this year @100$/night on average....and all I ever do is sleep at the room....we start at 6am....get back to the hotel at 9pm shower and pass out. This TD will save me alot of money over the next few years....and it will be alot more fun too.
If anyone makes it up to the Reno Air Races, Stop in the Pits and say hi, I will be Racing in the Biplane Class.

Casey,
That's way cool!!! :thumbsup:
I spent many a year doing sports photography... Got a chance to do the Reno Air Races one year.
I was lucky enough to spend some time with Lyle Shelton and the Rare Bear crew.

Posted this one a while back. This was at the Vegas air show. Luckily I blew this up and posted it. I looked back at those pics and they all got shrunk down.
