Welcome! We have a few members down by us. There is an ongoing Nashville thread on the forum where we plan trips and meetups. If you check out the rally point page we have an upcoming trip to LBL September 14-16!

I too am experiencing this issue.

It is, but damn it's worth every penny! [emoji4]

Exactly. I'm sure it's worth it if you'd use it to it's full potential but I don't know if I ever would.

I was thinking the same thing but it's another $2,700 to jump up to that one. Granted you get a few other nice options like shocks, bigger tires, a front storage rack and box, as well as a stronger frame. At this rate we are approaching almost $10,000 for this trailer with options like awnings...

Initially I don't foresee us doing anything too crazy with it, but as we get more into the lifestyle I have a feeling we will try to get more and more remote. I suppose I'd rather plan for it ahead of time rather than trying to fix it after the fact. If it's a couple hundred more it's probably...

I don't see myself wheeling it hard, but I'd hate to be faced with a situation where I regret not getting it. I will see how much extra that will run me. I have seen that the Max Coupler is a better/stronger option. Does anyone here have any opinions on the matter?

Also, I found some downloadable MVUM of Land Between The Lakes as well as some maps of the Turkey Bay OHV area: Land Between The Lakes MVUM (as of 2017) Turkey Bay OHV (as of 2017) Please let me know if you are having trouble accessing/downloading these files.

I think so as well. I really need to get out and explore more, and with a Jeep TJ it is awfully hard to fit gear and dogs in for a trip. I think the Hiker will address many of our needs as well as adding a few comforts to the adventure. The trip we are building up to will be a two week adventure...

I have created a Rally Point for this event. Can everyone who is going RSVP to the Rally Point? https://www.overlandbound.com/event/overland-bound-land-between-the-lakes-trip/

Many of us will come in Friday afternoon and leave Sunday morning but others come anywhere in between that time. There are no set times for anything, no planned trail rides or sight seeing tours, no assigned camping, no one to tell you when you can or can't wheel, how loud you can be or when to...

To follow up on the initial post... My wife and I have been talking and may instead be considering a Hiker Trailer. When weighing all the options I feel that may be our best bet. Y'all can keep the discussion going though because it is definitely informative!

I feel you, and I am sure when I hit that washboard road I will regret cheaping out on the trailer. I don't want to do this twice and since the materials for the box itself will be pretty cheap maybe I will splurge for a welded frame to be put together by a local fabricator.

I'm simply looking to do something like this with a RTT on top. Mostly for weekend journeys but I do want to take it out to Moab eventually. I will just set up in a campground or off a side road; I don't plan to rock crawl with my trailer to my destination...

I don't particularly plan to wheel it too hard, but I know that when the opportunity arises I will wish I went a different route. What other options do I have in terms of more sturdy trailers?

Has anyone used one of these to create a trailer? I'd love to make something like a Manley where I can keep some bins and a cooler/fridge in the bottom with a RTT on the top. Would something this small work? I'd be towing it with a Jeep TJ so the smaller the better...

@EisenYota if I come out I would be down to visit Turkey Bay for a day. Nothing too crazy there from what I tried when I went but they have some steep climbs, mud pits, and some technical parts. Also, you can count me in!

I am pretty sure the meet at the movie theater is every Saturday I believe, but the first Saturday draws more cars I believe because those are "exotic" days or something. That's when you'll see more high end European cars. As for the Dirt Devil there really isn't any camping along the way. It...

A word of caution on Wooly's is that many many trails are overgrown and you will get some nice trail rash down there. Since you're looking for 2wd trails you may be fine though. Another thing to check out (link below) is the Dirt Devil. It's about 30 minutes west of Spring Hill and is really...

I use a Trasharoo but I do not leave it installed full time as I am afraid of the fading issue they have.
