I saw your rig at Chili Challenge last year. Do you just back off the closed ramps to unload, and can you climb up the closed ramps to load??

I have a set of slide in ramps that I hook onto the back of the flip over ramps, effectively making it just a flat deck trailer. Kind of a pain in the ass with the beavertail, it makes the back end of the trailer pretty low so I was always dragging it somewhere.

Which rig was yours?

I think he might have ramps ratcheted down under the jeep.

What's the point of keeping the flip over ramps then? Or what's the point of a beaver tail in the first place?

Ended up picking up a 2000 24.5ft sunchaser bumper pull this weekend that is like new inside. Weighs 4200lbs so it is half ton towable, wife has a 07 suburban so if we decide to take blazer on weekend trip her rig can tow this or the blazer fine.

I would have loved to had something to haul the blazer around on but from what ive found i was going to be paying atleast double what i did for this one. Im hoping that we use the shit out of it and if so i will upgrade to blazer toter of some sort in a couple of years, if not i think this one will be a easy sell due to its size, bumper pull, and able to be pulled by a 1/2 ton(4200lbs). Figure this would be a quicker sell then something to haul a vehicle inside because of the smaller market for such.

Appreciate everyones input, examples, and suggestions. Hopefully others will find this thread and use its information in their search.

I can take the camper off and load a mini hoe or rubber tire hoe a lot easier with the flip over Ramps.

TJ on full width tons, 39.5's. Yellow hood and windshield frame, white body. License plate says RE Todd. We were camped 2 sites from the end of the circle, grey 40 ft toy hauler

$5k for the camper. $1k for build materials and such.

I may have to look for one of these. The wife doesn't like having to climb into bed, and that's a sweet price for what it looks like.

Just watch cl like a hawk every day. I picked up a 40ft gooseneck year before last, a 2000 model that needed a bonded title. I traded a 30ft 14k gvw for it that I had $3500 in. Title was simple.

Edit: The trailer was up north if you in Cleveland, I was living in Katy.

Found a 30' for a sweet price, now to mount the camper.

Best advice I can give you is find the highest rated tallest LT tires you can fit on the trailer. My 14k like yours would blow ST tires constantly. I almost put a 3rd axle under it before I found my 40ft.
