For one third the money, you could just do the top in AirTabs. That will help a lot.

Be sure to spray-can-paint them before you apply them. They need paint to keep the plastic protected from UV. :thumbsup:

10-4 on that. Did the same thing to my boomerang TV antenna. Even though
it was already white, I painted it white to protect it, as it's plastic too.

Keep the spacing of the AirTabs as close together as is recommended on AirTabs.com. And ya might wanna own an extra just in case one gets dinged/crushed/chipped...or to show to the curious.

Baskets! Why didn't I think of *that*?! :thumbsup:

I'll be on the lookout now for ones to fit under the futon in the Featherlite. Need more storage that can slide out.

Scenes from the hiway:

On the way home, just north of Medford, I was passed by an F-250; 2 shiny dirt bikes in the back; towing a tandem axle Pace.

On 3 wheels!!!

He passed several exits where he could have gotten the flat fixed . . . .but surely that would have cut into his 'fun' time.

It's amazing how many guys still drink and drive.

So I go over to my friend Joel's house today to help him build his 5x8 Rimple (quasi-teardrop) trailer and I take him some materials that came my way super cheap. What does he do? He gives me another trailer, an old tent trailer.

I now own four trailers parked in three different places around town. Only one is finished. One is half way. One has a deck on. The new one needs to be stripped of the tent trailer parts down to the chassis.

I come home and what pops up when I check the news online? This:
