Nice looking rig.

But it ain't no Boler.
Seems quite a bit heavier too, from what I remember. Definitely more room than a Boler. With the extensions, It seems only slightly smaller than the one you have?
Did you go to the RV show on the weekend? I wanted to go but it didn't work out. A new rig is well beyond my price range but it's fun to look.

So are you buying now or you've just picked the model and are hunting for a deal?
Y'know if ya keep buying things with wheels, you need a place with just a tad more driveway.......

Nice Trailer rick, I was just looking at some last night, I was talking to the wife about going away this summer for a vacation and thought about renting an RV or a Trailer, but then she said for the rental rates we could stay in a hotel, and she would enjoy room service a lot more since it was a vacation and she wanted to feel like it was a vacation for her too !!!
So there it is, I thought I had a good idea LOL

Yes we went to the RV show, as for picking the trailer we have narrowed it down and are now hunting for the deal.


If the Canadian dollar picks up some momentum again like I think it's going to come late spring or early summer we could be looking at saving another thousand dollars off of todays quoted price.


I must say the travel trailer dealers put the used car salesmen to shame, with the exception of a few they are the slimiest folks I've ever had the pleasure of dealing with.

I commented to one about we liked the trailer except for the fact that the microwave was only inches from being on the floor, he says well it's important to keep the weight low for a low centre of gravity, I said that makes a lot of sense so why then if this is the case did you hang the heavy fridge from the ceiling?


Funny he didn't have an answer.


Here are two other potential buys.

Terry's Trailer Service - 2104 Rockwood
A little heavier but better suited to our requirements.

A lot lighter but less space less creature comforts.
