I'm the second owner on the Hi-Lo, and have had it for seven years. The Chevy has 203,000 miles on the original engine.

How'd it tow in the snow?

Looks pretty intimidating to me!

Firemarshal,

Is that a crack running vertically on your front end cap? If yes, how have you sealed it?

firemarshal,
That "crack" looks like your solar panel lead wire to your battery? pic 5 looks like a cool fishing pole holder, where did you find it?

Fly shop Magnet Rod Holder

They are getting pretty easy to find now, usually in Fly Shops.

PV panel

Yeah, it's not a crack. The previous owner cobbed on a solar panel and wired it to the battery. I've since cut off the wire, because the panel was trickle charger size. I picked up a 65 watt 4 panel PV kit from COSTCO for $300. I set out the panels when I'm dry camped for more than a couple of days. It takes about 20 minutes to put the package out, versus mounting the panels to the roof, but I can correctly orient the panels for maximum charging.

Snow Towing

The trailer tows fine in the snow. I don't go faster than 25, and just enjoy the drive. Just remember that the trailer ground clearance is less than your vehicle. In deep snow, it tows like a snow sled! Periodically, check under the trailer for loose wiring and also the drains that are low enough to take a beating.
Plowed single track roads can be a problem, as the trailer is a little wider than your vehicle. So watch out for the iced-up roadsides, as they can put a hard hit on the front of the trailer and crack the fiberglass.
