I am very excited about Lifetime’s new Tent Trailer. Not so much because it is a tent trailer (although that part is very cool especially for the camping family) but I am excited because of its diversity.

After years of looking and deciding, my wife and I purchased our first home this year. We purchased the home brand new and, let me tell you, there is a lot of yard work to be done. We have tons to do to get the yard looking its best. We have decided to add decorative rock, as well as sprinklers and sod. This new Lifetime Tent Trailer will be perfect to haul them all. Trees and shrubbery are a must. We haven’t figured out what kind of trees we want to get, but its nice to know I have away to pick them up from the nursery when we decide.

Wait a minute. Hauling rock, sod, and trees in our tent trailer? Yes! See, the new Lifetime Tent Trailer is actually designed first, and foremost, as a utility trailer. It's perfect for everyday yard work, moving furniture etc. since it has 120 cubic feet of cargo space with 40" sides for tall loads. And, what's cool is the sides of the trailer even unfold to double as a work table.  It has a 7'x5' solid wood floor and a heavy-duty steel frame with a durable, rust-resistant powder-coated finish.

After we get the yard in maybe we will even have time to go on that camping trip with the kids to Bear Lake. And, with the Lifetime Tent Trailer, we'll be ready to go in no time because the trailer converts in less than 10 minutes to a spacious 84 square-foot camping tent that sleeps up to six people.  The best part is the tent folds into a small bag that fits in our vehicle so we can still use the entire trailer to haul an ATV, Lifetime Kayaks, or other camping equipment. This is a huge difference (literally) from most other tent trailers on the market which have a tent bag that takes up the entire trailer leaving no room to haul your fun gear.
