    Chase, you little asshole! Welcome back!!

    I finally upgraded to the Fuel Hammer Drill and Impact. No regrets.

    I was in Ormond Beach long enough to eat lunch at the Cracker Barrel right off 95 about a month ago. If I'd known you were still alive I'd have hit you up.

    You gonna stick around this time?

    No shit haha thats right down the road from me haha!!! Yes i am planning on it!! Haha

    I would hook it up to your truck and see if the brakes do anything or make noise or show any sign of working. The brakes could get expensive.

    I have read about a special magnet on the trailer drum brakes that tends to go bad or the wire will corrode off, i will do some research on it.

    One other thing I would want to look at is if the wood on the trailer deck is in good shape. It's not hard to fix but lumber isn't cheap either :)

    From the picture it looks to be good, the seller said it was in good shape, no holes or rot or splitting, he said he will send some better pictures tomorrow.

    He said hes gonna take the wheels off and take pictures of the brakes, also its a 2005 which is pretty new.

     

     

    Edit: He was asking 1000, but i got him to $850, which i think is a good deal.

    Hey guys so i am in the midst of buying a trailer,i wan to be self suffcient for my business, it will pay for itself in no time,  the goosneck was a bit out of my price range, but i have found another which i am really liking, its a 16 x 7 tandem axle, 3500 pounds each so it will haul a car or small truck, tractor etc, its in real good shape, led lights, brakes, tool box, deck is good. tires are good. Also i have a lot of confidence in seller, which makes everything better, but this trailer is about perfect and will haul about anything, and i can do alot to it, going to put a winch on it so i can load stuff that i cant lift by myself. also sold my boat this week, i needed the cash haha. but here it is, and i want everyone to show off there trailer cause it is like our truck we gotta have them. heres the trailerhttp://jacksonville.craigslist.org/for/4555705542.html

    I think it comes down to how aggressive you state enforces the federal rules. They spell out the rules on this page. http://www.fmcsa.dot.gov/registration/do-i-need-usdot-number Oh here is the rule it only applies to interstate commerce. Your fine if your over 10,000 pounds in the state of Florida, but you can get busted had if you drove and got scrap outside the state of Florida or took scrap out of the state.

    Oh ok then i will be good, i will hardly ever even take the trailer on the interstate, the only reason im jumping on this gooseneck is because its has a low deck hich is rare and isnt to long. hopefully going to work a deal out tomorrow,
