Well I think I may have dragged SE MI out of the recession the first qrt of 2010:D We purchase a trailer to go camping and hunting with. I wanted to expand my hunting and hunt different locations. I also bought myself my first new Truck ever, after a search of over a month I bought a New Dodge Ram 1500 quad cab ST. The price 26,200 out the door, warranty, the fact it was made right here in Warren MI(where my cousin works), and runs E85 also, were all factors in my decsion. I will add some pics of the truck later. The trailer is a Coachmen 24' trailer, it's a 2007 model with one previous owner. I plan on hunting more out of state and now have the means to do so. The trailer has Shower AC Heat Fridge with Freezer Gas Stove/Oven Queen size Bed Bunk Beds TFOX, here we come(WB)
Nice. My favorite memories are still the family taking out the camper over the summer to various lakes.
Very nice rig there Gary! You'll love having the "home away from home" on the hunting trips. My rig has made our hunts in IL the last couple years much more enjoyable. Also, congrats on the new ride! Though, don't be fooled by the E85.....I ran 2 tanks through Jill's Suburban and the hwy mileage went from 17 to just under 12 during those tanks. I'll never burn it again.
Schultzy I looked at a lot of campers, new and used. I bought a used one for a great price, after reading a lot of the subject, and talking to dealers used is the way to go for me. People trade these things in more than cars, LOL
Not to mention that new campers lose thier value even faster than a vehicle does. We've been trying to get rid of the 5th wheel for 2 years.....aint happening. This year, its gonna be out the door, no matter the price.
I know that about E85, but I just rather give my money to a farmer. I own a share of Ethanol plant here in MI
Congrats! I really loved my trailer. Have fun! (and if you've never pulled a long trailer before always scope out the small road, parking lot, gas station BEFORE you turn into it. Some gas stations can be real pains to get out of.) :D I'd considered getting another one but now most places I go, I'm pulling a boat.
That is sweeeet!!! Germ. If your ever rolling down US131 stop by and pick me up:p I want to see some pics of the truck!!
Congrats on the new toys. Nothing like hooking up the camper and heading out. I am also from MI and this is exactly what my hunting partner and I do for OH.
Awesome! I think Dodge Rams are the best looking trucks there are on the road right now, except of course for whatever truck I am riding in at the time If you need help camping anywhere let me know!
WHAT! Indiana is a Tweener state, what you gonna be huntin here for? :D Gary, thats a sweet looking setup, The camper aint bad either :D
