Lost mine on first trip on my 22fbs... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

4 Cab-Overs (still have 2) plus my North Trail ...

Congrats on your new North Trail!, I'll be taking mine for about a week of hunting / camping in a little over a week, can't wait!

I run one of these, Sportsman GEN4000LP 4,000 Watt 6.5 HP OVH Propane Powered Portable Generator, I don't have to worry about Ethanol gumming up carburetor & LP gas is easier to handle & store... same engine as the Champion, available at Amazon or Tractor Supply.

Re: Reviews of the North Trail 24 BHS Ground clearance is one of the things that sold me on mine, I do mostly 2 rut road, way off the beaten track camping with mine, haven't bottomed out afaik yet...

Re: Reviews of the North Trail 24 BHS No problems at all pulling my 22FBS, the 24 BHS looks to be a little heavier but seems to be built on the same chassis...

Nice rig! enjoy your North Trail, I love mine, just need to find more time to use...

My "beerator" went to Fort Worth last weekend for my girl friend's daughter to use at college...

Bonita Lake if it ever comes back from the devastating fire of a few years back is another nice place near Ruidoso ...

Very true, I have stayed in Alamogordo while hunting Oryx but the mountain areas might be better for a rally, even though it might be a little windy.

Thanks! the Ruidoso area is nice and White Sands is not far off along with Cloudcroft...

I'd be in for Ruidoso as it's fairly close ... Silver is on the other side of state so probably not going to happen, I work so would also have to check on days off etc...

Might grab a beer out of it when I get in from work (out of beer in house), going camping July 4th weekend so will be checking everything over good, plus checking food supplies...

I like this idea, right up my ally to make ...

Nah, one at a time... ;) even my old '79 GMC 4x4 (had since new) would handle if it had a brake controller...

I have 2 F150's, both work just fine towing my 22FBS ...

Nice mods, glad to help, nice upgrade John!

Been awhile since I've attached with vb, go Advanced (beside quick reply button) then scroll down and you should see option below to manage attachments. :) Need to get my North Trail on the road soon, been awhile.

Cool idea!, depending on this forums setup you may need 5 posts before you can post attachments, you should see above the reply window an insert image option, from that you can insert pictures.

Nice, I've been eyeballing one of those pre-fab setups...

I wouldn't mind swapping the couch with the dinette...

Park beside it when I get home from work at 8 pm, and grab a beer from the refrigerator ...(I keep more beer in the NT than the house).

Sure has greened up down there compared to last spring... (was there last weekend for Niece graduation from Angelo State and have been watching softball for the past few months)

The weather I'm looking at shows 100% chance of rain Tuesday & Tuesday night so be careful, gas prices were the same as Carlsbad up to Roswell last Friday night...(same in Clovis area also)

Mi Casita is my favorite for Mexican food in Carlsbad, it's on main street, although China Lantern on the National Parks Highway is very good also... Snow to go has good green chile cheeseburgers, it's on South Canal also in Carlsbad.

Living south of Carlsbad, the Cattle Baron Steak House is one of our favs in Roswell, it's on main street a ways past the UFO museum... pricy, but good.

Re: two days from fist trip of the year and now........No RV True, another reason to feel sick...

Re: two days from fist trip of the year and now........No RV Glad no one was hurt, I'd be sick though ...

My nearest city... watch for water trucks. ;)

I made that trip Friday, was wet from outside of Lubbock, to between Happy & Canyon, there were some ugly looking clouds for a ways. It cleared up in Canyon in time for the softball game I was traveling for at 4pm though... I did make the 278 mile trip back home after the game to get back out of...

Good for you (and her)! I like the Tech Floor mat...

Check this thread ... discussion, but hasn't been done yet.

Good advice, since I usually dry camp after I've pulled a length away or so I re check to make sure nothing forgotten at camp, hitch good, no trash etc... and when breaking camp I check psi in all tires.

Do a walk around the rig inside and out before heading out to be sure doors are shut, latched, antenna is down, chock blocks pulled ...

The Wide Trax does make it more stable, but you really have to watch what you are doing on 2 rut roads and remember where the trailer tires will be running with cactus, mesquite & Lechuguilla...

I have 2 F150's & pull my 22FBS fine with the 5.0, the 4.6 struggles on grades, but both are not 4x4's ... I mainly dry camp within 100 miles of home and haven't really had it out on the open road.

We are getting Me TV & H&I TV OTA with some of my old favorites, next days off may have to camp in the driveway...

Mine is close to the house, I sleep in it occasionally, I get 12 channels OTA and keep a WDTV first gen box in it along with a HDD with some of my favorite movies... keep it stocked with beer and the dogs love to sleep in it.

It should tow it just fine, I pull my 22FBS with both of my F150's ... be sure not to overload it or the truck though.

Nice rigs, Congrats! seems like I can't find the time to take mine out camping lately with Softball season & going to games to watch the Niece...
