All I need is a 53 foot trailer and I can haul the whole fleet to Trike Fest. If I ever get home that is.

I have my ways. Between this and one of the deuces I am keeping I can get my toys where ever I want now.

A Blackhawk is in the works.

What was Dual about?

?

What's your big idea? Blackhawks are pretty hard to get; my unit just lost one and probably won't be getting a replacement.
If you do... I am a 15T and crew chief. I figure 3-4 250cc or so sized trikes and gear might just fit in the cabin. There's also the 8000lb cargo hook...

Dual is a movie from the 70's(?). Where this old army truck with a tanker chased this guy in a little red convertible. It was super low budget budget movie.

That is my idea. I want to get to remote riding ares.

I remember that movie. I have not seen it in years.

Do you get a break on shipping? Can you imagine how much shipping by UPS would cost? Remember the movie "Tank" with James Garner and Shirley Jones?

I wish. I just have to work deals.

Actually, the movie was called "Duel." It was directed by Steven Spielberg, and Dennis Weaver starred as the commuting driver, who was terrorized by the tanker truck. That was one of my favorite movies when I was a kid.

"Maximum Overdrive" Great flick!

Yep and get an enclosed trailer and deck it out, dry storage, and sleeping quarters while on the ride, and a mobile work shop! :w00t:

It is funny you should mention that.

I am trying to get this one for that very same reason.

Sort of looks like it could have been a reefer trailer, sure would have been nice if it still had the reefer unit on it, frosty AC in the summer! Price seems fair, especially if the rubber is good.

I wis it was closer. I know shipping it would kill the good deal.

I can see it with twin 8 inch flat cut stacks towering about three feet above the cab. Paint it a gloss gun metal grey with shiny Alcoa's and low pros. Smooth out the excess trim, tint the windows, install s stainless visor, replace the stock lighting with LED's, install a smooth stainless bumper, and maybe some molded rear fenders. Yeah, I can see that, can you?

$$$$$$$$$$$

I can see the soot coming from those pipes now when you lay into it! Visor is a must, and yes a tall smooth front bumper. I'm kinda partial to the OD green, I think it would look good with all that candy around it.That would look very sweet, just the rims and LED are enough drool factor for me. I'm always looking into where I can use LED light, literally, if they weren't so expensive I could get them for my overhead lighting in my house, but for an LED PAR30 bulb its about $95 bux, and I have 24 of em--OUCH, too long for the cost savings payoff. I have LEDs on my car trailer, utility trailer, boat trailer, put them in my dads Dodge Ram, putting them on the Old Mans rollback, gonna put one on the back of my SX, yeah and maybe the kids too!

I doubt I will spend that kind of money. But I will make it look nicer.
