New Old Farm Trailer

Written by

So... I bought a trailer! I picked this bad boy up off my friend for a really good price on Thursday and I'm ecstatic to now have a means to easily transport my powersports with the Blazer. This is especially nice when it comes to transporting my large buggy project or maybe even my quad with the snowplow attached. 

Previously, I was just barely able to fit my four-wheeler in the back of the Blazer. It took two people, I had to completely deflate the tires for clearance, and I snapped some of my brittle late-90's GM interior plastic in the process of getting it in and out. That's not even to mention the mud and dirt brought into my cargo area or the fact that I had to leave the drop gate/hatch open as I went down the road. It made for a loud, windy car ride in that situation, but I made it work! If there's a will, there's a way; but now there's a much better way.

It's going to need weighed and put into my name, and I'll have to slap a plate on the old thing. Otherwise, it's pretty much ready to roll. The lights work and the bones are good, but the floor has rotted out a bit. I'll get it all fixed and looking good in no time. Maybe it will even give me an opportunity to practice welding with my new setup. 

I'm overjoyed!
