ohh and the wife will get another horse....

ask me...why i know that....
Yes, I do see the progression starting... Another horse, horse property, stables, barn, $3000 saddle, on and on. I was warned that the horse was the cheapest part of the deal.

I guess no different than our man toys like diesel trucks, boats, motorcycles, hot rods, ect. Always 'need' something, lift, tires, tune/delete, bumpers, etc.

Unrelated question - how much gap do you have between your camper and your cabin roof? Have you ever had it hit?
Not much, maybe an inch or two. It will just touch on big bumps. The angle of the rear tie downs needs to appose that of the front to hold the rear of the camper down, and be a soild mount. The thin bumper isn't going to cut it. I made my own 2-1/2" steel rear mounts that slide into the hitch tube. I had to angle then to get the geometry right.

I prefer to haul ATVs. Only have to feed them when I'm riding them.
