    It was very slow. You hardly even noticed.
    Then one day you find ten years have got behind you
    No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

    Pick my trailer up in 1-2 weeks. They're putting a couple of extra goodies on it for me and they're a little behind in their shop.

    Looks like this one. Will have chrome tool boxes, a dunnage rack, and rope hooks.

    Now that's what I'm talk'n bout!! :thumbup:
    Probably the largest cubic in that could be stuffed into this stink'n 112.?
    Could you imagine that ol girl song running through straights!? Lol Probably be put'n 2 mufflers, maybe even a resonator..

    $14k does seem steep, no argument there..
    But in todays market, people are paying upwards of $30k for a platinum overhaul by CAT..

    My little M11 is doing ok, other than she a blow by monster. Little over 4k miles on my last oil change, & the oil is still nice & gold on the stick. Don't know if that really means anything.?

    I've got a line on a '96 M11 for a grand. Think'n I can learn, maybe overhaul it myself (with supervision of course lol) on a stand & have it ready to swing in, for when this one bites it. That would probably only cost $5k-7k..?

    Don't fret!! I had a heaping pile of insulation on last week with 2 stops.. lol

    Rolled into Channahon to grab it, 1st time in Pinky. The boys loading over there were shocked to see me in a tandem to say the least. I really like them over there, we had a good laugh about my new money maker.. lol

    And what kinda tarp do you think I rolled out of there with on the nose..? You already know..

    "10'×12' non fitted!! Oh thats waaaayyy too heavy. We won't charge ya, but we'll just toss one of ours on.." :rolleyes:
