    Wheathauler,what do you normally pay for an annual truck/trailer inspection in your neck of the woods? I have been getting my local mech. to do mine every year and he charges $100. Just kinda curious how that compares every where else.

    That's not too bad if that's for both truck and trailer. Just had my trailer done and it was $60 but think they had a special going on it.
    I think the truck is around the $70 to 80 dollar mark.

    Thanks for warning. Lot of thunder and lighting plus we got .64 which is most we have had in a long time.
