Your new struts will be ready soon. We had an unexpected delay in the process but it's going forward well now. You will not be disappointed..

Shopping for trailers and pit vehicles this week... too many choices!

I ordered new trailering mirrors for my truck too.

If you don't mind a little extra trailer length go with a gooseneck. They tow a million times better than a bumper pull.

yes, gooseneck trailers are nice but you have to consider that in case you want to tow your trailer with another truck for example, you will not be able to if it is not equipped with right gear

That is true. Plus if you need to carry anything in the bed you're screwed. Not to mention the hitch is quite a bit of money. Maybe overkill for a single car / trailer but for over 10k lbs its a must. With T's back I was thinking it may smooth out the ride.

I've been hauling horse trailers of various lengths for many years and I agree. For a really big trailer, I'd go gooseneck too. But, I'm planning to just haul the one car and a modest pit vehicle, so I'll probably get a 24' or 28' bumper-pull trailer. I'll be trying to keep the load under 9,000 lbs if possible. I'll probably go with a weight distribution hitch because I've hauled those many times without any sway issues. My truck has pulled the IPS 28' bumper-pull trailer with my Camaro in it without any sway issues. So, I think I'll be fine.

BTW, the guys at IPS have been wonderful at helping me when my ol' back isn't up to a task. They take good care of me and my car.

Hi, Kyle. I am looking at pit vehicles first. I need to decide if I need a scooter just for me or more of a golf cart for the crew. I'm really tempted to get a scooter. I looked at a Honda Ruckus today. What a fun scooter that is!

honestly i was thinking of a gold cart/side by side for my car as well, but Patrick suggested to get a Smart car, that way you'll have an actual vehicle that you can take places in case you need to get ice, etc.
i didn't think about it but now that he mentioned I am considering getting one of those for my pit car.
