Thanks everyone

I will be leaving Southern Louisanna (Galiano) on the 13th, driving to LaGrange, IN to pick "The Beast" up. She started out being designed as a 22' flat front and ended up being a 30' V-nose (34' total enclosed) 36' overall. The empty trailer will weigh just a tad over 5,000. I will have a trunnion type weight distribution hitch, I have no reservations on pulling the empty trailer, after I complete the build out may be a different story though, as I will be adding approximately 4,800. The 1,400 mile trip back to Houston, Texas will be the tell of the tape. I will post details, fuel mileage, tranny temp, head wind, weather conditions, etc.

I will also post pics of the trailer and connected to my 2003 Harley Davidson Edition H2!!! Most people do not know HUMMER never made a Harley Edition, but since 2003 was the 100th anniversary of Harley and the colors were black & silver - Since I have an 03 Pewter H2, I added the '03 tank badges above the side H2 logo and "Bar & Shields" all over the place - inside and outside and created a Harley Edition - Even a salesman did not know the difference -(obviously a NEW salesman!! I have also changed out the side mirrors and wheels from 06 Limited Edition (eight spoke)........ I will try a post some pictures - I think most of mine are to large though......


Thanks again for all input!!!!
