lol!! I'm loving the new bumper on that Ranger!

I'm glad you didn't get hurt in the process! I was think that you might want to stop towing trailers!! I'd hate to see what would happen if you decide to tow that fith wheel from your post awhile back!

You got to love Florida for its insane roads or people or D "all of the above" Sorry to see the Dak in pain but glade your OK. Post picks of the finished bodywork. What shop will you be using? Florida has a chain of shops called Craftmasters and they have state of the art tooling and custom mix the paint by computer. Good luck and stay safe here in the off ramp to the ozone.

Yeah, that one. Yes it would probably pull pretty nice but that seems to be like a very large target for other drivers. Your last two trailers were pretty small and people enjoyed hitting them, I'd just hate to see how many of them would try to take that one out! That trailer would probably hold up a lot better though.

Hey, is that fleet of trucks yours? Looks like a pretty large one. How much land do you have down there?

LOL..yeah, that would help.

Perhaps if everyone else in FL learned how to drive, he wouldn't have to worry so much. Trailers shouldn't constantly get hit by morons flying around between lanes like lunatics. That pisses me off so much when I tow, you can't imagine.

Something tells me if I lived down there I'd be in jail for running down some idiot that hit me in traffic and going medieval on them...
