all this trailer talk and still haven't found the right one for my family

You know Trav, there is a place near Ocotillo and Spangler that will bring you a hauler out to your preffered location. Or you can rent one to tow wherever. The company in Ridgecrest/Spangler will even come out and fill your water tank again. If you only camp 3 or 4 times a year, that may be less expensive then buying a new one and then paying storage fees, Ins., maintenance and all kinds of other crap that goes with owning one. You have to rodent proof it, caulk it annually etc.. And also towing one is expensive because of gas prices. When you add up all of those expenses not including unexpected repair costs, it may be cheaper just to rent. Perhaps none of that matters to you but it may to some. That is not to say I wouldnt own one if I could afford it and had a place to store it

It's just something to think about.
