I've used U-ship and had no problems with transporting a trailer from AZ to MI. It cost around $1,350. This price of course will vary from shipper to shipper. How it … [Read more...]

Beware of scams when buying a vintage trailer

TearDrop

I really wanted to touch on this topic after seeing a scam run rampant currently. There was a 1972 Roadrunner trailer currently listed for sale all over on Craiglist. It's a gorgeous trailer and it's listed for $1,800. It's a SCAM. The same trailer sold a couple weeks ago on eBay for $8,200. So please, please be careful.

I am big fan of the tiny house movement. There is some sort of kindred correlation between tiny homes and tiny trailers.

Tiny Homes

I learned at a young age to appreciate the small space we called home and view the rest of the world as my living room and backyard. It was a wonderful experience for me and I have so many great memories stashed away from those days. Memories … [Read more...]

Saying Goodbye to Daisy

bye2

It's a bitter sweet day today. Today is the day I said goodbye to Daisy, our 64 Astroflyte. I know though that she is in very good hands and the buyer couldn't have been a nicer person! I am sure her new family will enjoy her so much. So while I'm feeling a little down right now I'm sure when the sun comes up tomorrow I will feel better and I know she went to a very … [Read more...]
