Thanks for dinner last week. Good times. Glad Rudy the stereo guy got you hooked up. Good guy there. The jake is your friend but works best at higher rpms. Now you need some straight pipes like me.
Was good to see you and Shannon and Frank! Good times indeed!
Rudy (not my brother in law - but the stereo shop owner) was the best! Super nice guy!
The truck makes a little noise with the new and improved jake -- but not like it should! I want hot rod jake sounds.... like the big truckers! It isn't going to happen with the regen exhaust stuff you must use... but I can dream!
Mr. Weld, Yes I did see the picture of the vertically challenged guy. I just thought he was the tire changer.
No really, looks like an exciting time to just get behind the wheel and travel. you sir have been blessed in that and I love to hear about these trips.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.
Trip was a lot of fun!! Met up with MikeP at Redding... tricked him into going to look at a "the ultimate PT Mustang" <I was sure he would pound my face once he walked all around in the heat to see it>.... /gregweld/Toterhome/file-72.jpg[/IMG][/URL]
I was going to let that it slide. What an amazing piece of "work". The funny thing was my dad and I walked down about 3 rows looking for it. If Greg says it is worth looking at it must be cool. My fault I fell for it.
I'm working on ordering a new trailer. This time around I'm going to finally actually order a trailer that will make use of my F-350 Dually.
I'd really like to get this RIGHT - the first time... so I'm looking for your help on pluses and minuses -- things you'd never do - and things you wish (unlimited check book items) that you had.
Trailer is ATC 40' - with 14' living qtrs... triple axles (spread axles) - all black - .050 rivetless skin... gooseneck.
I'm looking for ANY ideas - brakes - landing gear dos and don't - interior ideas - bigger liv qtrs - smaller? Built ins?
if you hate having a bigger trailer because it became a PITA - or do you wish you'd have gone a bit bigger?
Totally open discussion.
Well, after almost two and a half years, and 100 pages, Mr. Weld is rollin.
Heep -- It's really more like FIVE YEARS.... I just wasn't vocal about it!
I really struggled with this whole process... because it's a large commitment of energy to do this stuff! If you get it and don't like it -- you're kind of stuck. They have zero resale value. I learned something from boating... the guys with 30's and 45's were out every weekend... once the guy stepped up and bought a 65' the boat never left the dock. I was worried that might be the same situation with these things. However... now that I have it -- I like it!
