Yes, we have a Lee-sure Lite pop-up.

In the past we've had a Time-Out and a Bunkhouse...both of these were pulled behind 2 wheelers.

We've enjoyed all three of them. The Bunkhouse is the largest, and was the most comfortable. If we had had a Trike at the time, we would have kept it, but felt it was too much wind resistance pulling behind 2 wheels.

We started using pop-up tent trailers for the same reason...got tired of sleeping on the ground.

We are able to take everything but the kitchen sink. :)

The Lee-Sure Lite is by far the easiest one to set up and break down. It has a Double bed.

The Bunkhouse is easier to pack and has a King Size bed. It takes 15 minutes to set up instead of the 2 minutes the Lee-Sure Lite takes.

Kevin,
Thanks for your input. We are both large people, and the Bunkhouse with its king size bed would be best. We have been looking at all 3 that you mentioned but were leaning towards the Bunkhouse even with the longer setup time. I am happy that you would stick with it if you had a Trike at the time. Would you consider the break package you can get with it?

Hi Ken,

Yeah, the Bunkhouse may even be something we go back to. Definitely more room. The "living room" is larger also.

Lots of folks have said they would not have a trailer without brakes. I've never had one with brakes. I am sure it would not hurt at all, but I never found a need for them, on 2 wheels or on 3. Even with the TG loaded and the trailer fully loaded, I can stop far faster than most cars.

I imagine with trailer brakes you would be able to stop even faster, plus save wear on the Trike brake pads.

Ride Free!

That sounds like a sweet deal other than I'd like to have the king bed. Too bad works keeps me from buying it though. ThumbUp
