The TN Rescue van is almost all loaded up, just a few more items to put onto the trailer. I have made my list, tomorrow I will check it twice. :big afro:

12 different cub express loads, plus all my stuff, it is quite the list. Walt will take the unit home with him tomorrow evening, so I don't get stuck in my mucky driveway Wednesday morning.

Headed to Florida

It is a good trailer John. It needs a facelift though. It has a 6'x21' deck, and is the smoothest best pulling trailer I have ever hauled-and I have hauled a lot.

It is a travel trailer frame that has been beefed up, doubling the lateral braces so they are at 2 foot on center. The rear has a 3'dovetail with a 6" drop. The flooring is pressure treated 2x8 that was form fitted(bent) over the dove joint, eliminating a joint in the deck for things to get hung up on.

It has seen thousands of miles these last few years. It has been back and forth to VA, OH, FL etc.. numerous times and that one trip out to see Robert Miller and Steve K in CA.

Dale safe travels. If you could put some side boards on that trailer you could haul more parts. Just kidding See you down there Saturday morning. Steve

Steve, you know me-- :big smirk: If it had sideboards on it, it would get so heavy that I could not pull it. This way I have a hard time overloading it. :big afro:
