Friend looking for Teardrop

Postby wa_flyfisher » Mon Mar 12, 2012 7:10 pm

Haven't been here for a while. We had a son 10 months ago and life is a little crazy.

The problem is our friend really wants to buy one, but she has a 2009 Toyota Rav4 4cyl. 4wd

Does anyone on here have one that they tow with?
We are going to look athttp://www.poulsborv.com/pre_owned_detail.asp?sid=05431787X3K12K2012J7I13I38JPMQ3616R0&veh=2220527 on Wednesday.

The Apache dealer across the street from the Everett Poulsbo RV has new T@Bs
I have a Little Guy Silver Shadow I wanted to get rid of because of water leaks. :cry:
It's so bad now I'm just using it for storage at my brother's in Eastern WA.

T@bs weigh too much. I would be talking to the Silver Shadow guys, that is BS, unless you did some mods that could cause it to leak.

It was built by subcontractors in 2008. The subcontractors went bankrupt to keep from having to repair them all.
I tried fixing the leak, but it is in a design flaw in the rear hatch hinge.
I gutted it after the leaks started and couldn't fix it, to use it for storage.
I plan to strip it down to the frame and make a cargo trailer out of it some day.
Just can't do it at my apartment.
