Hello from Louisiana

Hello forums, I am in the process of buying another TT. I have had one TT and have a pup right now, but plan to trade it in Saturday on a 2014 Wildwood X lite FS 185RB.

I am retired, but the wife is still working as of now. She is planning on retiring June of next year. We ride motorcycles and have done a lot of traveling on two wheels. We have done some rv'ing, for a week at a time. Tied into jeeping and motorcycling. I have a F250 Crew Cab with an 8' bed for my tv. Way more truck than I need for this light camper, but it is paid for and I can load the Harley in the back and close the tailgate for towing, which is my plan. The wife will have to follow along in my jeep.

I know the 185RB is a small trailer, but that is what we wanted. We camped in a Kwik Kamp that I pulled behind the motorcycle for years and we just don't need a lot of space. I am looking forward to picking it up this weekend so I can start my mods.........whatever that may be. I was in construction for almost 40 years so I can never leave well enough alone...LOL

Bill

Welcome aboard from SoCal. And congrats on your soon to be Wildwood X lite! I love seeing smaller trailers at the campground and always take a quick peek at the setup too. It's interesting to see how people manage to get the most of limited space instead of always going larger.

Happy camping.
