And we just had a "Bud" from N Illinois register here this morning.

Wonder if it's our old buddy "Budman"???

I am still around and actually miss tgransporting (sometimes0

Mary and I finally dumped the F350 last february. It cost $10K out of our pocket to pay it down enough to trade it in. What a disaster that truck and the 6.0L engine was.

We traded itr in on a Jeep Wrtangler and also sold our Hionda Valkyrie motorcycle. Our first trip was last May to Moab, Bryce and Zion in Utah and the ther north rim of the Grand Canyon. In September we went to Yellowstone and Grand Teton.

Great pictures:

Right now I am disassembling an Army M416 1/4 ton Jeep trailer. It will be sandblasted and then repainted to match our (black) Jeep Wrangler. We are thinking about heading to Alaska next year.

And we have started talking about maybe looking at truck prices and starting to haul again.

That's because we are are basically not very very smart <GRIN>

My best to all of my friends from RVTransporters. I will drop by and post occasionally.

I thought I sent a message this morning but it ain't here.

Mary and I finally got rid of the F350 after coughing up $10K out of our pocket to pay down the loan. What a relief it was to get rid of it. We bought a jeep Wrangler and now travel in that. We went to Moab, Bryce and Zion in Utah and the north rim of the Grand Canyon in AZ in May and this past September, we did Yellowstone and Grand Teton.

Pictures came out great:

I am rebuilding an Army M416 1/4 ton Jeep trailer. I will probably match it to my Wrangler. we are thinking about going to Alaska next summer.

Mary passed through the room and saw what i was doing and said, "maybe we should get a truck again and start transporting again"

which shows that w are actually pretty stupid and never learn lessons from mistakes.

But i do miss it. Hope everybody from RVTransporters are around and if so, "Hey!"

Just finished rreading all of your mods and you new rig.

I think you're wasted doing trucking jobs, you should be designing/making transporter rigs.

Got a phone call yesterday from one of my Quality customers here in Illinois. He wanted to know if I wanted to pull another off shore racer down to Naples, FL and pick up the one I delivered last year and bring it back.

I think this would be too much for the Jeep Wrangler (but I did find a super charger kit that would give me another 123 hp)

I do miss taking the rides though.
