I like how he's got the bicycles mounted to the hitch of the hummer instead of just carrying them directly on the trailer.

But I'd say that's gotta be somebody either full timing, or at least snowbirding. Way too much for a general weekend trip.

Looks like someone with a short attention span to me!

But seriously- this trip, we have bikes, 2 vehicles, kayaks, and the camper. We're just short a golf cart vs. this person.

I thought you were working on a solution for that.

I have the solution in my head... It's the 1,000-pound overloading of the truck that in having a hard time coming to terms with! That and it likely would make me exceed my front GAWR. Maybe if I can convince her to get a '15 with another 2k of payload.

I wonder what his tongue weight is with that golf cart hanging out front like that? Maybe the bike hanging from the rear is a counter weight.

Just needs a 500 gal fuel tank to pull behind trailer so he doesn't have to stop every 1hr for fuel.

I know we're highjacking here, but I still think your best solution is to trade in the BHOK on a toy hauler. Then you'll have both the cart and a place to set up your home office when the cart's out of the garage. Something to consider...

(Argh, hijack icon here)

It's a good solution, but not one my wife would tolerate. She does not like how the garage feels like a garage. Plus with our in-laws staying with us, she thinks that her mother would give us crap about it (I know, my camper, my rules--- but happy wife and all that jazz).

I like the new side haulers; one has a full roll up garage door to it.

Or, I just do this:

Motor home with car trailer. He has it setup like a sewing shop when he parks at places. When he moves, everything gets rearranged and he puts in his car and golf cart.

Ah, looking at it again on the desktop, I think you're right. On the small phone sized screen, first thing that came to mind was an H2 or H3.

Definitely a Jeep with a painted hard top. Rubber front hood retainer, front fenders and rear gas cap give it away in a second.
