My Dream Project: Clifford and Moby

Traci and I made it back from Florida with our new (used) trailer. It looks gigantic compared to the black trailer. It is the same length but is 13 feet tall. and has tons of space. It is an older trailer but is built five times better than our original trailer. It is made out of all aluminum so it is actually lighter than the black trailer.

The living quarters are well laid out but considerably smaller that the black trailer. This gives us way more room in the car garage area. We have room for both the dragster (on the bottom), The Black Hole (on the lift), and the Honda UTV (in the upper loft over the work area).

The shop area and car storage is awesome! The outside is very straight but is faded somewhat so We will figure out how we want to jazz that up.

Clifford the Big Red Truck did an excellent job of pulling the trailer. We pulled it all the way (2200 mile round trip) about 65 mph and averaged 9.3 mpg even with 30-40 mph head wind the entire way back. We did about 3.5 days of driving.

Traci even got to get a bottle of sand on the beach at Cocoa Beach, Florida while we were there. We sure miss the beautiful weather we had in Florida. It was 75 and beautiful!

Now I bet you are wondering about the name? Clifford's name came form a children's books series about a giant red dog and you guessed it, Moby came from the classic book Moby Dick, about a big white whale!!!
