--- That isn't my trailer Mootinator. I have a 24 ft TPD Vortech with A/C and a 48 ft Cargo Mate Eliminator . I bet they will meet your approval.

looks nice with the new "stickers".
i've toyed with the idea of adding the white gold checkers to mine to get this look...

over 3-5 years, it's cheaper.



doug, that is a POS. you should sell it to me. for 80k

is that why you dont change oil but just buy another one when the oil change interval is up?

Further off-topic for Taiwanese Cowboys with interest in Sarsaparilla or Sassafras beer: Safrole, the aromatic oil found in sassafras root and bark that gave traditional root beer its distinctive flavor was banned for commercially mass-produced foods and drugs by the FDA in 1960 as lab animals that were given sassafras tea or oil with large doses of safrole developed permanent liver damage or various types of cancer.
The flavors that I have gotten to make it are all synthetic.

Not my intended use, but in the Old West sarsaparilla was also believed to be a preventative against venereal disease, probably because of the diuretic effects.

good thing i only use safrole oil to make ecstasy.

Boss's new 911 GTS arrived this week. Last of the NA versions, MT, white over black, black rims. Was checking it out in the parking lot earlier.
Nice, but looks so plain Jane. Definitely needs an aero kit to spice it up.

I passed you right after the construction zone near the top of hwy 9. I was in my company car so I was not having nearly as much fun as you.
