DRL- Thanks for the offer, I might take you up on it.
Getting pics tomorrow- looks good so far. There are some things missing like a winch, but TPD is between me and the seller, so things may work out. We'll see.

Why are toys never used?
Yes, indoor storage. Let's see.
Brand new TPD, wow! You must be getting excited. Enclosed trailers are the only way to go. It seems like it takes all of us time to discover them and then longer still to figure out that the best trailers are worth every dollar you spend.

Good question, my friend! I will be strapping the crash cart to the street side wall, via the e-track (both upper and lower) with 2" ratchet straps. The stuff in the cart can be secured in various ways. Firstly, I'm not terribly worried about it bouncing out of the cart. I've spoken to several owners who claimed the contents in the trailer just don't get jostled around. But, I'll err on the side of caution. So, one plan is to buy a small storage net and contain everything via that and 4 bungee cords. Plan B is to use 2 cargo cam lock straps, looping them over the top of the JP stands and across the floor jack.

In fact, when I was there last, David Ray of Hooked on Driving was having his 24' triple axle TPD refreshed.

I have found that very few people get this but the ones that do get over the initial pain quickly...
TIE IT DOWN in the trailer... absolutely
this is why etrack is wonderful as it gives you flexibility
if it can move, it will

congrats on the new trailer, when do you upgrade to the Goose Neck. The TPD curse is to only use the trailer for a short while then upgrade to a larger one!
