    Right now I'm on vans but back to flat deck in the fall I guess. I'm going to put a small whale tale on it to get the air up over the trailer.

    Ended up not doing the deal. When I got to the dealer it wasn't as described and the $ values had changed so I walked. Then my Pete burned to the ground..... So now I have to buy... In Toronto looking now may do another used depending on the insurance settlement.
