Why am I feeling that is a cloaked statement?

Every one that has came to the shop with one of those pulling there cars Loves them. Easy to drive, and pull great. I have friends that use them to pull their dirt cars

I asked a commercial guy at work, anything over 10,000lbs GVW needs a class A and a DOT number, its federal law.

This combo is totally worth getting a class A for, I love it!

I do not know about anything over 10 000 lbs needing a dot number. That means if am driving a f-350 with a car trailer I would need a dot number. I have not been pulled over for that yet. Or do you mean just the tractor?

Forget all that. With living quarters it's registered as an RV.

Thought of you on the way home last night

Wasn't too impressed with their luggage though.

Okay -- the big ol' POS made it to Chandler.... and the dealer has a few things to do to it before it's ready...

What do you guys think of painting out the grill -- white "surround" with the center blacked out??? Or just leave it??
