  • how much have you hauled in your festiva.

    After packing large amounts of camping gear into my festy trailer, got me thinking.

    Before unpacking.


    After unloading everything. Keep in mind I have a harness bar and 4 point harnesses, so the blue car could only be loaded behind where the rear seat would be, if I still had one.
    Im not driving a Festiva because I'm poor. I drive a Festiva because i want to!

    Love camping but don't have that much romm in my festy. Have to take the wagon.

    I think i might go the hitch route too, and maybe the roof rack too.

    That is a lot of gear. That for two of ya?

              somewhere on here there's pics of me hauling another festiva, on a tow dolly, along with a bunch of parts in my Festiva. Also, there's a pic on here of 900lbs of top soil, mulch and peat moss in my Festy, plus a 275lb driver...

                The real question is :

                How many festivas you hauled with something else.

                    While not hauled IN my Festiva, this past Saturday I hauled a load to the scrap yard pulling a trailer I built.



                    Gross 4180 LBS. Tare 2720 LBS.

                    I weighed just the Festy by itself with approx. 3/8 tank of gas.1860 LBS.

                    Me 140ish LBS. Trailer must be 700ish LBS., hence the tare weight of 2720 LBS. So I have to date hauled 1460 LBS. on the trailer BEHIND the Festiva.

                      I don't have any pics of me moving back to school. That's usually the most packed I have my Festy. From floor to roof with the rear seat and passenger seat removed.
