The Haul Truth Behind Untold Towables

For the past month or so we’ve been asking our readers about the stuff they tow behind their truck camper rigs.  We asked about towed boats, utility trailers, scooters, mopeds, motorcycles, Jeeps, inflatable boats, canoes, and kayaks.

“I tow ATVs.  Can we play too?” came an email, with a photograph of ATVs on a trailer.

“We tow farm tractors.”

“Here are the race cars we tow to the track.”

“What about snowmobiles?”

“How about the horses?  We tow a horse trailer.”

“Don’t forget about airplanes!”

Each time Angela would thank the reader for their submission, and put it in a folder.  Truth be told, we planned a final towable Question of the Week for everyone that towed something that didn’t fit into the aforementioned categories.

We want to hear from truck campers who tow barbecue smokers!  Or airplanes, tractors, race  cars, horse trailers, jet skis, snowmobiles, and ATVs for that matter.  Flat towed or open trailer, we love all towed toys, and want your towed toy story told.

Finally, at long last, after weeks and weeks of excruciating patience, it’s time for the no holds barred “What do you tow?” Question of the Week.  If you tow something behind your truck camper, and haven’t been able to participate these past few weeks, this is your moment!

This week’s Question of the Week is, “Tell us what you tow behind your truck camper.”  Please, no towed boats, utility trailers, scooters, mopeds, motorcycles, Jeeps, inflatable boats, canoes, or kayaks.

Here are some fun examples and some inspiration from past calendar contest galleries.
