I may as well throw in one food for thought too...I bought a 20' Haulmark enclosed tlr..Its great for all the aforementioned reasons...however,when i got it I sold my open one which reduced the net outlay by $1000 at the time....great then but have regretted selling the open tlr ever since because of the ease and convenience of using it around town or hauling just about anything for myself or friends/family. I wish I had kept it....try having a tow-motor load a used lathe into your closed tlr...my ramp wont hold that...etc. etc., Rick In a message dated 11/7/2011 12:27:51 P.M.

It works great for the most part and allows us to stay at the track which we have always liked. The average mileage drops about 2 mpg from 9.3 to 7.3 when towing. Gotta drop a gear on hills and a strong headwind coming at a slight angle from the front (North Dakota) will drop the mileage even further and make the driving intense. I shredded a rear tire on the trailer going to Laguna Seca last June for the Kastner Cup race and didn't even know it until someone pulled up beside me and waved and pointed. _______________________________________________ fot@autox.team.net http://www.fot-racing.com Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums Unsubscribe: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/fot/rek46@aol.com _______________________________________________ fot@autox.team.net http://www.fot-racing.com Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Archive: http://www.team.net/archive Forums: http://www.team.net/forums |
