Well after forty years it's time to retire the old girl.
The disposal guy ready to go
Rolling away on 40 year old tires, the spare has never been on the ground.
This trailer was used every summer up until last year.

That's my Aggie flag :-). I've been to the State Park there several times. My parents used to live right around the cove by the State Park. On that particular trip we went to Wolf Creek Park.

After researching for him (he's 81 and doesn't know what the internet is
), I said "You sure you don't have a spare?". I crawl underneath.......there it is.

Does that thing have Dexstar rims? I only ask because my neighbor was looking for a spare for his 68' Holiday Rambler..............$120 for one rim!! Take them things off and sell

This guy is going to do a complete restore on it. It even has what looks like a Reese dual cam hitch.

What are you using for WDHitch? Let me know what you averaged for mileage. I'm planning on making the same trip next year to Fort Wilderness.

Thanks man! I run a Reese dual-cam WDH and it does a great job with sway control on top of the weight distribution duties. I also have a set of Firestone air bags for added stability The trip was much easier and worry free then I expected.
My total trip average was 9.0 MPG on the nose from NW Ohio to Disney and back. I drove between 70 and 72MPH on the expressway. The truck only left the campground 1 time while we were down there for a quick Wal Mart run. I was amazed at the difference running premium fuel. I ran premium the entire trip, but at one fill up they only had 87 regular available. That tank was only 7.5MPG!!! (and is included in the 9.0 MPG average)
