    Practice using the word Aye at the end of the sentence, that way you'll fit in if they keep you...as in "I'm goin to Timmy's for a double double, Aye. Oh yay, then on my way home from work, I gotta stop for a cold 2-4, Aye"

    I hope that this group of new trailers are the only Reitnouer trailers they're buying. These aluminum trailers are so arched that nothing long sits flat without dunnage. They only have 2 positions for the adjustable spreads. They have those rounded square spools on the rub rail. And they only put 1 strap winch behind the rear axle...not 1 per side, 1 winch. They put a bolt in the track to keep the winches from moving back (which I removed to put 2 winches per side). I hope that they only bought them because they got a good deal and are buying some other brand the next round. (I didn't like the Reitnouers when I was adopted by We-lie either)

    It’s not “aye”, it’s actually “eh”

    Actually they were one of our sister company's orders, that was cancelled before being shipped, so the manufacturer made SPD a deal. (Not sure which company, trailers have rope tie down hooks like COTC, but are 53' which they don't pull) Still a crappy spec'd trailer.

    They are significantly nicer then anything they are replacing. The only thing missing is strobe lights.
