Trailer Queen? uh no!
« on: April, 15, 2009, 11:06:41 AM »
Well I borrowed a friends enclosed trailer and his F350 V10 dually Super Duty to take my Stang to Birmingham. I feel bad not driving it down there but at 10mpg and potential rain I figured what the heck. It's enclosed so no one will see it in the trailer!

Married to Tara, that makes me the TARA-fied one!

Trailer?  What?  What fun is that?  The whole reason we're going is for the 22 round-trip hours of driving!

What's the latest weather forecast?

SOB, I forgot it was this weekend!!!!  Geez.  And Jeremy, the only thing you'll be sweating going to CF is hoping no cats run out in front of your car.  I bet fur coming out of your tailpipe will really freak some people out!!!!

I really wanted to drive mine, really!

they say 30% Saturday and 40% chance of rain Sunday (when we will be going home). I think the rest of the week looks okay but you know how that goes!

I'm in Birmingham now and the weather is beautiful.  Made up the time after blowing the turbo pedestal seal out on Monday. 

BTW, just because a car rides in an enclosed trailer doesn't make it a trailer queen.  I'd be afraid to park either of my cars at a hotel overnight without security, especially since I didn't drive in a group.  It was a 1,600-mile-trip for me here.  Besides, if I didn't have the trailer, where would I put the cooler with my beer and margaritas?

I'll drive it anywhere but my wife was thinking a lot like Laurie and I'm glad. It was nice using the trailer like a garage at the hotel. We drove it to the show and the cruise and out for dinner and stuff, then locked it up in the trailer at night. I did feel better with it in the trailer.
