I have been wondering if you have gone camping yet in your finished trailer? I know your first attempt did not work out when your tow vehicle broke down. You worked so hard on it and I'm hoping you have been able to enjoy it.

Aaaahhhh shucks guys! We've taken it out a couple of times, first we took it for a Shake down run and entered in a Vintage Car Show, the organizer came over and told me I was in contention for best in show, but since it was a car show and not a trailer show, he couldn't award me the prize. He also told me a couple of the car guys came over and told him they were upset I was there because it was taking attention away from the cars...cry babies! This is about as Glamped as I get! Second we were finally able to take the Shasta Camping, I found out a couple of things, 1) I need a Transmission Cooler, I had to pull off and let the truck cool down when the Trans temp hit 245 and the engine was right about the same. But that was after a long grind up a 10000ft pass. 2) Always carry a extra striker for the Bargman L-66(VTS sells them) my NOS handle's striker shattered into 3 pieces and we couldn't close the door, we had to tie it closed to travel home.
