Looking forward to seeing you guys again - if only briefly.

Nobody was supposed to know about that. LOL Yes, I ordered 2 trailers. I thought Bob would like one too.

Don't get me wrong. Love the beast. On our last trip to Wyoming. It was about 10 days on the road. Traveled 4,000 miles.
Expenses for the trip;
Fuel, $1.700.00
Campground, 5 days, $150.0
Food, $125.00
Total $1975.00

If we would have taken the Grand Cherokee.
Hotel, 10 days. Avg $130 a night. $1,300
Food, eating out. Per day, 2 people. $100. $1000
Dog boarding, 2 dogs, $30 per dog per day. $600
Fuel, $800.
Total $3,700.

So the difference is $1,975. It's just that $1,100 a month payment gets old.

If you like going, keep it. You're retired.

Sometimes that $1,100 a month could go to other things. Like a TT kit. :driving:

Spooler 07-27-2018 01:51 PM

We just had the third trailer order go in today. If anyone of you guys are interested things just got a little crazy for Blue Jay Trailers. He has our 3 to build plus he has had a big order of specialty trailers come in. He builds refrigerated trailers and Competition Barbeque trailers. So, If you want to get in on the deal you can. The wait time has just increased. Make sure you insist on him building your trailer.

Spooler 08-03-2018 12:04 AM

I think one of our trailers is being built next week. They take a week to build each one. I will need mine shortly.

Elmo370z 08-03-2018 12:53 PM

My buddy is selling his fully enclosed trailer for 10k, pm if interested I have a bunch of pictures

Spooler 08-06-2018 10:42 PM

Hotrod, what and where did you get your E-trac's tie downs from.

Yup...they work great...

Spooler 08-14-2018 06:31 PM

My trailer is in the process of being built this week. I should be able to pick it up sometime next week. I need to schedule a day off. Work is just crazy at the moment.

Spooler 08-17-2018 06:14 PM

Well crap. My trailer is being delayed a week due to the one they worked on this week taking longer than expected. Such is life.

Spooler 08-23-2018 01:03 PM

First trailer is just about complete. I have pictures but I don't want to post them since it is not my trailer. It looks very nice. I can't wait to get mine. That will be a good day.

Hotrodz 08-24-2018 08:31 PM

So here is a little update from zmanelite. He has picked up his Grizzly trailer and headed home as I post. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...145b264010.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...67257c68e2.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...030a253684.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...5748e39c61.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...4e13213695.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...fabd1c9815.jpg

LOL, you are costing me more money. I am trying to add the cabinet's, AC, lighting, and a Generator Box to mine. It's so hard to know all the things that they can add and you will use. Crazy.

The real question is would you rather pay someone else to bring it to you? I know how much they wanted and it wasn't cheap.

Your lucky, my wife would have stayed at home and I would have been on my own. LOL.

Spooler 08-31-2018 08:09 PM

My trailer is just about finished. I will pick it up late next week. Then, the third trailer starts it's build process. It looks great so far.

Spooler 09-06-2018 07:14 PM

Big day tomorrow, picking up my trailer. My sugar momma gave me the cash.
