Well...2nd picture didn't take so I'll try again:
The towing shot. TV is a 2005 Jeep Liberty (4X4 Renegade Edition). Looks ridiculous hauling this trailer, but actually pulls pretty well - so far. (We've only done two trips so far.)

Wow, that camper dwarfs you're Jeep. To get the camper level, you'd have to have the tongue up to your hatch glass! I don't even know if they'd make a ball mount rise, that tall.
Nice rig BTW.
Here's a pic of my rig.

Thanks, Mike.
Actually, that picture is deceiving. The trailer is actually level with the hitch when on level ground. The Jeep is actually turned slightly more toward the camera than the trailer is.
It still looks pretty funny, though! My trailer has more ground clearance than my Tow Vehicle! Reminds me of a Tug Boat pulling a Cruise Ship...
C-ya!

Our maiden voyage with our '69 Apache that we got through freecycle.org
Raquette Lake, NY

Yes, we are slobs at home, so we are slobs when we camp ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/smile.gif "smile") ![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/biggrin.gif "biggrin")
We are retiring it for the '06 Bayside we just picked up today. I will post pics of it after its maiden voyage.

Great little PUP, bet the Bayside seems huge compared to the Apache.
Do you have any more photos of Raquette Lake? I grew up going there as a kid. Many fond memories of our old Jayco at that lake. How is the campground?

New here, but am enjoying this thread. Below are some pics of the first outing we did (Near Ojai, CA) with our slightly used 2005 Starcraft 11RT PUP.
First, the campground shot:

Then the towing shot. TV is a 2005 Jeep Liberty (4X4 Renegade Edition). Looks ridiculous hauling this trailer, but actually pulls pretty well - so far. (Only done two trips...)

Great looking PUP...
Where did you camp near Ojai? Bet it was a little warm up there this time of year. We haven't made a trip up that way yet, what are the nice campgrounds to hit?

- Hello Monakayk.
I don't have a "Webshots album" or a "1969 Nimrod Tent Trailer." Perhaps you have me confused with someone else? The only trailer I own is the Starcraft 11RT that I posted pics of, and I've only uploaded the two pics that I've shared.
Hummmmmmmm? Well, sorry...I thought I had clicked something from your name/signature and saw these photos from Webshots at the link below:
http://outdoors.webshots.com/album/558539884UsuGYG
Wonder who these photos belong to?????? (LOL![[emoticon]](http://www.coastresorts.com/sharedcontent/cfb/images/huh.gif "huh") )
HAPPY CAMPING!!
