Was that the great tow rig Hank (Sea Skipper) had that Dusty said (on the other thread) that was his favorite of all time?
Better not take your eye off that new rig, you kinow how Dusty just has to have one of everything.

| aw Hank's is probaly a cheap knock off......the beauty of this rig is that it will turn on a dime, the only bad thing is that reverse doesn't work to good |

I haven't checked the mileage yet and it doesn't have one of those fancy trip computers. I have noticed that it's a bit slower than the Ford. We where pondering going to Lake Powell again for spring break....may have to get on the road next week.
That's a pretty sporty looking set up there Squarehead |
