I was thinking I'd pack a few MRE as well. Along with some canned goods etc.

Meals Rrady to Eat are heavy, but they are ready to eat!

Somebody once mentioned a smallish list of tools/gear/parts that might come in handy in a particular bind, but might never be used and thus be an unnecessary burden in weight and space but instead of each driver carrying it all, splitting it up. I don't recall what those items were but it seems like it was things like a No. 2 Round Point D handle shovel, tie rod, machete, etc. perhaps we should establish such a list and then agree on who carries what???? Just something to think about.

Sounds good buddy

I'm thinking real hard about ditching the trailer idea all together and just getting a cargo rack. I've found a tent cot that I really like and will fit in the bed of the pioneer nice and snug. Thoughts guys?

I've found a few, but could damn near buy a new pop up for what they want for them.

Nice. How low it is though, wouldn't make it a day on the trail. I'd have to jack it up on some ATV tires.

I think there may be a change coming in the route. Upon a little research, there appears to be a massive at trail system in the black Hills if SD, I'd like to route through there, as it also provides passage into WY. Stay tuned for updates.

I've actually been secretly pondering this. If I lived in the mountains where I could regularly ride and camp I would love the trailer. I just don't have a use in Iowa when I already own a 42ft toy hauler. I'm pondering designs for taking the bed off and building a cargo box. I spend a lot of time pondering lol
