You can only vote for one, so vote your primary choice.
Please post after you vote if more than one category applies or you wish to elaborate. If you checked *Other*, please describe.

You might check your poll-card. I just voted two options, race trailer and boat, Instead of boat the tally shows up as utility trailer but the "vote for this choice" indicates by color change that I had clicked on it. Deen

Deen, I don't know how that happened. The poll lets you vote for one choice only. So the poll should have tallied your first choice, whichever one it was.

Horse, most often I pull a trailer made from the back half of a '65 F250. I use it to carry firewood usually. Works real well, paid only 50$ for it. No title or registration or plate for it. So far no one has ever looked at me enough to notice, don't know if it matters or not. Have also pulled a flatbed with another truck on it, flatbed with car, and Dad's sailboat, and a 32ft travel trailer. That 32 footer has me thinking about some trailer brake setups, it seemed I was working the truck brakes pretty hard. DF

If I've got two Ford trucks, can I vote twice?

I just voted for a boat trailer which had 1 vote & 5% before I voted, and it is still the same after the vote.

1. My primary trailer is an aluminum triple axle trailer with electric over hydraulic brakes for my Chris Craft Sportdeck 262.
2. Last spring we purchased a new 2000 Jayco 31' travel trailer at auction only because we already had the Excursion. We stole it at less than $.55 on the dollar.
3. The Sea Doo trailer used to get pulled by our 4wd Aerostar which was rearended and totaled in December.
4. I also have a 7k tandem axle utility trailer that is used to haul a Ford 1920 diesel tractor with front end loader, bush hog, scraper blade, rake and plow. Can I ask questions in the diesel forum?

I replaced the Aerostar with the F350 CC LWB so now I can tow both of the big toys at the same time. Boating & Camping at the lake is the best!!!!

I pull a 25ft Terry travel trailer which weighs 6,000lbs empty according to the tag, but which I'm sure weighs more than that simply because they all lie on those tags!! In the market for a boat now, but have no money and mean wife who says I can't get one. May trade wife for boat if good deal presents itself!!

p.s. am now very glad wife is not a ford truck enthusiast and won't be reading this forum!!!!!

Mostly I pull horses now. Still get the chance to pull my friend's Mustang and trailer to the track once in a while.

Horsepuller:

I tried voting again from another PC (just incase you were using the IP address to limit voting) and it would not let me vote. So the single vote seems to be working. My first line/question was meant as a joke because I'm lucky enough to own two ford trucks. As one of the other posters stated I don't think that the vote for "Boat" works as I chose it also and it still only has 1 vote.

Since the Earth is 3/4 water, I would think that 3/4 of us would pull boats!!!

Great question for a forum like this. It proves that the common bond of having a great truck can overcome the differences in our hobbies and toys.

Sportdeck, okay it's not supposed to let you vote twice, so your vote should have went somewhere! I'll ask a friend to make a vote for 'boat' to test it out. That's about all I can do besides delete the choice entirely. We'll try to find out what's going on with that.

Everyone else...thanks for participating in the poll! Please continue to do so!

Scott:
I think what is happening is people are putting in their first vote, and trying to vote a second time. I did the same thing. Boat is working just fine. Is there any of having a secondary vote??

Thanks
Deb

Deb, thanks for helping us troubleshoot the poll.
Sorry, but the forum software only provides one vote polls. That's why I had to ask everyone to vote their primary in the poll and post any others to this thread.
