Title: Life Time Tent Trailer
Post by: HUNTNORTHWEST on October 30, 2013, 02:29:14 PM: http://www.costco.com/Lifetime (http://www.costco.com/Lifetime)®-Camping-Tent-Trailer.product.100003491.html

Anyone have one of these that has a decent review?

I was looking at the jumping jack trailers and they are just way out of my price range.
The jumping jack features a canvas tent which is really nice.

My concern is that this tent wouldn't hold up in any weather. I was hoping i could get some opinions on here about the product. It would be sweet to haul a quad and gear to hunt with. Then have a big tent to call home for a few nights.

Any opinions would be appreciated.

You could also get a flatdeck trailer (like a car trailer) and buy a used tent trailer off cragslist, remove the axle off the tent trailer and mount it on the front of the flatdeck, can carry 2 quads or whatever on the extra deck.

That'd be nice to tow behind my ATV way up in the woods :tup:
