Yep, that 'Land Yacht' will expose you and yours to a lot more sights than the 'Lake Yacht', and probably better MPG (engine hrs. PG) lol

Thanks! We love the V-Cross. For a 40 footer, its only 12K fully loaded so pretty lightweight. The truck barely knows it's back there on the highway.

Hey camping,. I like the color scheme a lot. The way the brownish hue at the bottom blends in on both vehicles is great!

Here's mine. As of last night, she's got true-blue, vertical towing mirrors. Click image for larger version

Here is my new trailer and my faithful 2007 Toyota Tundra in front of Wana RV in Indiana on the day I picked the trailer up -- March 15, 2017. Trailer and TV details follow the pictures.

Like dlfarley, I just added a set of towing mirrors to the Tundra and will toss the strap-on version in the dumpster (it vibrated too much and tried to fly off halfway back to NC). These new extendable mirrors are better than my OEM heated power mirrors as they have all those features and also have marker lights and turn signals in them -- cost $108 each on Amazon.com. Took 25 minute each to install.
