Trailer ready to go

Picked up the trailer in New Orleans today and assembled it this afternoon. Hitched it up and pulled it for a test run. I ran the speed up to 75 mph indicated and absolutely couldn't feel it behind me. When we take it on the maiden voyage I'll have to keep reminding myself that it is back there. Let me recommend these trailers very highly. The workmanship is perfect and the overall material quality is really great. I purchased it on E-bay from americasbesttrailers.com
The seller is Jason Ellis and he is a very good person to deal with. Let me also compliment our very own Chuckster on his hitch. Again, great workmanship and material at a great price. I'm ready for Custer!!!

Chuckster 1 is a member here and makes some top-notch stuff for the Nomad. Contact him at [email:iko2luvk]chuckster1_31@comcast.net[/email:iko2luvk]
for details on the trailer hitch he builds for Nomads. You won't find a better hitch at a better price.

Trailer looks great! Did you get the tailgater feeling from the sound of the trailer tires on the pavement? The first few times you hear it, you think somebody's riding your tail.

No Scott, I never noticed any new noise but I do wear ear plugs. I'll have to try pulling it without the plugs to see if I notice it.

Nice rig.!!
I'm restoring a fiberglass trailer. But I'm going to sell it when I'm finished. I picked it up for a good price. Redid the chrome. new wiring, LED lights, I'm just waiting for it to be prepped and primered and ready for the buyers paint.
