    How do you resize pictures to send from I-phone? I take my pictures that way.

    I pull a 51 foot Doonan stepdeck, with a 270 inch wheel base Pete. My trailer has the short 10 foot top deck, so I can still get the 41 on the bottom. I have to have my fifth wheel slid almost all the way back as far as it will go to clear my top deck. I have never had a problem any where I have ever went, and have been in some places drivers with those short freight shakers won't try to get into. If I ever do buy another truck I was actually thinking about going to a 280 wheel base.

    The way I feel about it is you spend all day driving forward and only a few minutes backing up, I will sacrifice the extra pull up once in a while backing in, to have a nice ride all day long.

    Like everything else, “There’s an app for that”. :biggrin_255:

    Actually there are over a hundred apps that come up with a seach for "resize photo".

    I just upload them to my computer for resizing so cannot recommend one over another.

    Hope this shows it. Otherwise I'll try again as I'm not great with pictures and uploads

    You missed getting the fifth wheel in the shot but man that is one heck of a headache rack /tool box.

    Nice truck.

    I access this forum with TapaTalk for iPhone. Doing so allows one to simply take a picture or select an existing one and post it.
