Exactly what I am looking at doing. I bet my kayak, ebike and SUP would all fit in there and I would have room and weight for my backpacking gear too. Excellent. Thank you for filming the tour.

Well done Gents, nice build out. i,ve done 2 5x8 cargo conversion with the same concept of hauling my Harley Softail, (or Suzuki DR650) and converting the 5x8 into a base camp. Tows under 2,000 lbs,

Jim would prefer to be able to stand as well. It was there, and the price was right, not to mention convenient.

Did I miss what height is?
@jimloggin57233 ай бұрын
I haven’t measured it, but based on my 5’11” height I’d guess it’s 5’8” or 5’9”. If I had bought it new I would have gone for a 6’3” height.

It is short but it beats the heck outta those little crawl in teardrops. And it carries that huge motorcycle too. 40 sq ft! I’m impressed.

We bought a 2 year old used InTech Pursue cargo trailer in 2020 for $10K. All aluminum frame with insulation, rooftop AC unit, Fantastic Fan, pull-out kitchen, TV/stereo. We added an outdoor shower, Ironman tent that attaches to the rear back doors and provides another room to our camper. We use it as a base camp while we explore/hike/fish. Best part it only weighs 2200 lbs loaded & fits in our garage. EZ pull with our Tacoma Off Road truck.

Just found your channel! Sounds like you're in my neck of the world, I'm in South central Oklahoma (Ardmore) and have a cargo trailer conversion I love but always looking for improvement ideas. Look forward to watching many more of your videos!

I agree it works and is a beautiful trailer. I bought a 5x8 with extra height, I think it cost $260 more, for a 6’ interior height and it makes all the difference in the world. But I’m 75 and that little crouch over would be a back killer
@jimloggin57233 ай бұрын
Ceiling height could be higher for sure. The deal I got on the trailer was too good to pass up. I knew it would be easy to sell if I found it didn’t work for me. I’m already getting offers from some motorcycle riders.

@@thetrailbuzzard I haven’t measured but based on my height (5’11”) I would estimate the interior height at 5’9” and the ramp opening 5’7”. I can lower the windshield on my RT and easily get inside.
