You are welcome Mike. I know we had a good time.

Now I am sitting down with a Captain/Coke. May have to have a Captain/Dew since it's St Patty Day...

Happy you guys had fun. Allie is such a cutie. She seemed to enjoy herself, well except when you were holding her.

I may just have to have a drink myself. Maybe a Captain Long Island....................or just a beer.

Yes she is. Of course we may be a little biased...

Mmmmmm....Captain Long Islands are good.

That trailer pulls like it's not even there. You just notice it a bit stopping.

Yeah, maybe a little biased.

Yes they are.

It sure does pull nice, even with 2 sleds on the front. It does have brakes, pretty sure they work too.


Can you get me a picture of those 5th wheel rails?

Guessing they are all pretty much the same

Looks like I can get a mounting kit separate from the rails, either custom fit or universal.
