I'd be real happy too!

Here is the lady that hand stitched the rug, she has worked for Karastan in Eden, NC for over 50 years.

For stay-tacking the seam into place to hold position while she sews it silly. The needle-nose pliars are for holding the needle.

If you touch the rug before you pay you get your fingers hit with hammer.

Trailer guys -- Poulsen's Trailer Sales in Logan Utah -- says the trailer should be done by the first week in October....

I have a driving event (in the R8) - at INDE Motorsports Park in AriDzona late October - so if it all works out I might pick up the truck there (AriDzona) and take it to Indiana to pick up the trailer... We'll see. Sounds good now - but that time of year can be a bit hectic.

Default Goose neck trailer tips - what a joke

For most of on this site and many others it is bumper pull and goosenecks.... we got sucked in alot by the title...thus the original answers. At is was made clear in the answers money no object. Great for you. Come to NC and get a used meg RV moving house...bigger than mine real house and a hauler... they are all over here. Have some one drive it so you and the wife can take the back roads, This is not a gooseneck trailer conversation. That is for the working folks like me.

An event at INDE MP will definitely make you appreciate having the trailer. There is NOTHING out there in Bisbee/BFE. We did an event out there last year some time and were pretty surprised by how little there is in the way of services, hotels, etc. Bringing your own 'home' is the only way to go.

There's a couple of obvious car-guy compounds down there with nice homes and massive garages. I guess once you get that all you need is the helicopter to get you down there from Phoenix cause it's a fairly long drive (2.5 hrs or so?)
