    That is beautiful!! {But on a sidenote it's kinda like owning a pickup truck. Lots of people instantly become better friends when it's time for them to move}.

    My solution to the low license plate mount. I ordered a light for it.



    On the trailer. Just need to buy some tie downs.

    Very cool! Congrats on your new trailer! Looks great! You will love the extra storage and the rear jacks.

    Coming from a guy who tows more than most, add more of the D-ring style tie down points all along the sides and the across both the front and the rear. You may never usually need them, but the times you do, they are priceless. Also think about buying another spare tire and wheel. A lesson I learned last year. One is never enough. Chances are whatever caused your flat or blowout on one of the tires, will also harm the other on the same side. I actually carry three full spares on my main gooseneck now. And also know that my tow rig's tires will fit in an emergency as well. And remember that the trailer needs maintenance too. New good grease, good wheel bearings, and proper air pressure will keep it like new for a long time!

    In the tie down/straps category, I prefer Mac's ( http://www.macscustomtiedowns.com/ ). You should consider buying a complete spare set of tie downs. They are cheap in comparison and even the new, best looking strap could fail in the right circumstances. Besides normal wear and tear, the elements like the sun bad weather and then road grime and other hazards, will destroy your straps quickly.

    Good luck with your beautiful new trailer!

    I am definitely order a set of straps from Mac's.

    I was thinking about getting a couple of these for extra D ring locations since I have stake pockets.



    I decided against a second spare, maybe I should go ahead and get another.
