There was just so much going on. \u00a0I was still getting things set up for the trailer, trying to figure out where I put everything, doing yet another new racer school at the end of the month along with the races a week after we got back. \u00a0It felt like I had no time to stop.\u00a0 I didn\u2019t either.\u00a0 I still had to take time to really CLEAN that new trailer.\u00a0 Poor Ken, he was feeling bad about not having cleaned it enough, but he\u2019s a dude and as a rule they don\u2019t thing to clean things like the walls or ceilings or to take upholstery cleaner to the things in the trailer.\u00a0 I did.\u00a0 It made a huge difference in how the trailer felt and smelled.\u00a0 The musty odor was gone and it was brighter inside.<\/p>\n

I was still making small mistakes about how to set things up.\u00a0 Ken had to show me a few times how to set things up, he was also constantly helping me fix lil things on it. (And what I mean by helping was he was doing all for me.)\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I finally got a handle on all the details about the 3rd time I had to set it up and bring it down.\u00a0 I can\u2019t believe that I waited that long to get one of these\u2026 what I had been thinking.\u00a0 Sleeping on a real bed instead of an air mattress is awesome.\u00a0 Not to mention it doesn\u2019t go flat in the middle of the night.<\/p>\n

Ken did a great job of getting it set up, it has mounts for two pit bull restraints.\u00a0 I\u2019ve already got pins now for a few bikes and Pit Bull is working on pins for the husky and the TW.\u00a0 It\u2019s great to have a TV; I\u2019ve now got a Ruku for it so I can stream movies and TV shows to it when the HD antenna isn\u2019t picking up anything good.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This trailer ticked off just about everything on my wish list for a toy hauler.\u00a0 It\u2019s small 17 feet, a decent shower (that wasn\u2019t over the toilet), drop down bed that was a decent size, sleeping on couches just isn\u2019t comfortable, not to mention you HAVE to unload the bikes. It has a built in generator, even if it isn\u2019t really large enough to run tire warmers, it also has a lot of storage and it has a dinette rather than two couches.\u00a0 I like the idea of an area to work on things at a table.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve now taken it on two longer trips.\u00a0 I\u2019m not thrilled with the gas mileage, but the niceties that come with this are worth it.\u00a0 Being able to head up to PMP and down to Arroyo were great, not to mention a hot shower in the am was awesome!!!<\/p>\n
