    It almost looks like Georgetown, Ky Toyota, with that retracting door in the background.

    Ok, thanks. Most of them pretty much look the same with similar setups, so it's hard to tell after awhile. :D

    That is a perfect tarp job and I would desperately like to learn how to do that. Thanks for the pic but if you have time and a camera person, a video would be a wonderful thing.

    I just dropped off 3 coils this morning and I'm never going to do that again. I've hauled them before, but why should I do it anymore. Why should I haul something that can get damage by rain and then I would have to file a claim with my insurance company for something that doesn't have any more money than something that doesn't need to be tarped.

    So that means your not hauling anything that needs to be kept dry anymore?

    I've owned 10 of them so I don't get the joy if wrestling tarps anymore. Work smarter not harder.
