I am working, just as hard as you guys did today.

As for the sound it will come, to the word parts one of these days, but the video will be all Cummins motor music.

Its main purpose is going to be at most 2 jeeps and a samurai which weighs in at a grand total of 8,500lbs. I might be cutting the center deck out for more weight and that company usually offers this trailer with a 3rd axle infront of the others to give it a 21k gvw but that will have to wait till i get my CDL

Only if I upgrade the trailer to 21k gvw I would then need to get a CDL im good now the only thing I was worried about was total length. As long as it is under 26k cgvw and I don't go over my payload with the tongue weight I should be fine.

hey rob the guy that you bought the trailer from called me, he lost your number adn theres something wrong with the check i think. Eric thats the trailer i was talking about. 75' is the longest you can go. you will need USDOT numbers, MED CARD and put NOT FIRE HIRE on the side of your truck when you haul those rigs around. how much does your truck wieght they go off the GVW of the truck and trailer combined. if you wieght over the 26K they will fine you. so if the truck wieghts 9K and the total trailer wieght is 14K you have 3K to play with with gear and stuff. but you also dont wanna overload the drive and steer axles on the truck. and you dont wanna put a third axle under there that will put you in the Class CDL range. but you can use your truck and trailer to the test.

Yeah just responded.

the trucks gvw is 10,500 so that should give me some more payload capacity for the 95 and the mega i think is around 9 or 9,500

He got back to me last night. Doesn't take Paypal. I won't do business where i have to send a cashiers check.
Even though he said he trusts me and would send the turbo then the tracking number, then i could send the money. How do i know he isn't sending a box of rocks?
