Default Need Cargo space......

New to the site....had my 08 Unlimted for approx. a year and a half. Now with (2) dogs, the summer camping trip has become more about cargo space!!! Looked at some of the tent trailers (chaser, horizon, etc.) but might as well buy another Jeep for those prices.

Does anyone have a similiar problem and can offer some experience and advice?

Appreciate it.

Default Found an M416

Finally found an M416 and hopefully solved my cargo issues. Going to look at it on Saturday. I'll post pictures and provide details...

I found it in Rochester, Ma. Picked it up last weekend and seems to be in really good condition. It's a 1963 M416 Army version, completely original. He did have (1) M416B (Marine version) still for sale. If you're interested, I can give you the website on found it on.

Let me know.

I believe he wanted $800.00 for it. Both of the trailers he had were in really good condition. I loaded mine up for the first time last weekend and went down the Cape for a couple days. This is what I was looking for to transport my camping gear. I'm blasting it and applying a bedliner this weekend. Off to Maine in a bit for some real camping............

I'm fortunate that the company I work for in Providence has a blast and paint bay. I also deal with a painting company in New Haven, CT that does really nice work with blasting and powdercoating. So I'm just weighing my options and need time get it stripped down and start on a cover.........
