Advice on trailers

Post by Umpalumpa »

I will soon be getting rid of my Venter 5ft with Nose cone. (off course I will advertise on the forum)
In aspect of this happening, I would like to get another trailer.
One I can use for camping and ever so often use it as a "round the house" trailer for refuse removal etc.....
Is there a trailer out there that can offer me best of both worlds?
I will get a RTT for the trailer, but this should not be a permanent fixture as the trailer might be used for domestic stuff as well.
Budget is about R15-20K.
Your suggestions, comments would be appreciated :beg: :beg:

Town And Country trailers are really well built and have huge compartments. Think the 7ft one will work nicely for you

Mooi trailer Dawie .... (het jy hom op daai pic so pas skoon gemaak - daar hang nog 'n lappie agter op die kar! :D: )

Die T&W trailer is ook mooi, my broer se skoon seun het die selfde ene soos in Cassie se pic en hy's baie gelukkig daarmee.

Dit hang nou af waarvoor die trailer gebruik gaan word maar vir sommige off-road instansies is daai trailer wieletjies effens te klein. Apart van die feit dat Dawie se trailer uit VS gebou is, is syne miskien beter omdat die modderskerms bietjie groter is en sal toelaat dat jy groter wiele sal kan opsit (met extended shackles). ;-)
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.
