It looks very nice. Unfortunately, we're a bit of a distance from Ontario (although we do enjoy visiting it at times). Is your price US $3700 or CDN $3700, for those who might actually be in a position to purchace?

We're probably about 10 hours from Ottowa. We actually got engaged ON the Ottowa (river) 5 years ago. :)

We're at the beginning stages of trying to decide between building and buying. Still need to figure out what it is that we're looking for in a TD, but hey, if you're in the area anytime, I'm sure I can get Ed to come look at it. 8)

Good luck,
Rose

AS IS unfinished I have calculated the weight being 900lbs.
Tongue weight is roughly 100lbs.

this will change as it does get finished.
Finished / loaded weight might be around 1100lbs
and tong weight 100-150lbs
( a lot of the weight will be added behind teh axle)

I often pickup the front and roll it around the yard alone without too much trouble(which is really nice with a teardrop).

My 14hp lawn tractor moves it up my huge hills :lol:

So there's no problem for any 4cyl. car to pull this trailer.

Thanks for lookin...
