We purchased a 2004 T@B last summer (June, 2019) and love it.
Here we are on our current trip to WA. We have been glamping and mountain biking for a couple weeks now.
I found this forum a at the start of our trip weeks ago, and I've been reading posts since! My 'to do' list of mods has grown significantly, thanks for all the ideas. I also have a hand full of questions that I'll post up in the relevant threads.
Glamp on!

@iboulder , Which Ford truck is that Big TV, a F250 or ? nüCamp recommendations limit a TV to a maximum, 1/2 ton TV. That said, your trailer is built on a U.K. supplied frame, and axle assembly. You could add shocks to it which would even things out, and improve the ride for the TaB.

@Denny16, the TV is a 2016 Ford F150 2.7L. When we bought the T@B, we had an older 2WD Tacoma. The Ford does look really big compared to the trailer. We always laugh at it.

Thanks, with the new trucks, it is hard to tell from a distance or photo. It seems bigger is better with the 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton truck sharing the same body and frame used on 1-ton trucks. Mid size p/u trucks, like the Colorado, are almost the size of a 1/2 ton used to be, F150 from the 70/80s.
