Looks fantastic! I keep family 5'ers on my property, we made (5) 42x12 crushed rock pads with power and water, 6' between ea pad, looks great. Had a few car port people come out and give quotes lately for 5 shelters(42x18x16) . Figured I (we) would get a good price for 5. the least expensive so far is $4500 ea. I think this is too high??

Thats about what we paid for ours. It was shipped out of Dallas and the crew that delivered it drove all night. They erected it the next day in about 5 hrs.

Very nice!
The DW would not let me put up a tin shed, so I had this one built.
The guy built it by himself, with 6X12 cedar beams and 6X6 cedar posts.
He ran water and 30A service to it too.
We had 2 hail storms in the last couple of months, already had to replace the tin roof on the cover, glad it was there to protect the trailer.

Thats heavy I'm surprised one man could build that but I built my poll barn by my self with a lot of improvising and the help of a old JD crawler loader and 40 years of welding in the mines.

He used 2 ladders and screwed boards to each post, to walk the beams up.
I could barely rotate one of the beams when it was on the slab
Oh to be young again

Anytime you have an expensive RV..boat or anything of value it's best to keep it covered if possible. Nice cover!!

We have a few RV's on my street that's out in the country between two cow pastures. We still have to comply with the subdivision rules so I had to paint the cover and put some "faux" brick to match my house.
