[Shop-talk] Better construction vehicles?

[Pat Horne]

Another thing I have done when I needed to transport 16' pieces of trim 
is to tie my 32' extension ladder on top of the car and then tie the 
trim to the ladder. It makes a great, flat transport and doesn't require 
me to get the trailer out.

Peace,
Pat
