Hello everyone, I'm feeling much better, lot easier to move around now.

Can anyone recommend a good trailer brake controller or have one they don't want? I need to find one and get myself a 2 5/16 ball hitch

I loved my P3. I took it off my '01 before selling it but I'm not sure if it's in the garage or if I gave it to my friend in NJ to try and sell. I'll text him and ask if he has it.

Nothing sticking to the roads and for some unknown reason most schools closed today. In turn the roads are way more empty than usual. Have a nice Friday!

No snow stuck at all on the roads today down by me, they plowed our street twice, what a waste of time.

I've been checking craigslist lately for an enclosed trailer, you cant seem to find used trailers for much cheaper than new ones. And if they are a good price, the trailer is usually pretty beat up.

Not much snow here either and nothing on the roads which is fine by me but, they're predicting a bigger storm on Tuesday. Hope it's like this storm, I'm ready for spring.
