    Well time for something different......

    Why not just pull a 28-40 trailer with liftgate? Nosecone .com for a trailer nose cone.. What is the weight on the steers? Any problem with sealed loads? Good luck and yes LEAM is a lot more flexible now with Dave Dallas back.

    Songs that describe EO members

    I remember leaving Nam and someone on the plane was playing Grand Funk Railroad"s "I'm your Captain". When I start heading home, I think of that line, "i'm getting closer to my home", Still can tear up on those memories{too much ptsd...lol}, or maybe it's the lack of drugs.
