What type of trailer were you pulling? I've considered getting a trailer
for my TR6.

Carol and I just arrived home this morning (1:30am) from Triumphest.
We
left yesterday after the group photo. We had breakfast and ended up
leaving
around 11am. We stayed the night at Park City, UT. Left there about
6:30
(central time) and arrived home at the above time. We went through 5
states and
it took 17 hours pulling a trailer. Carol, trouper she is, gave me a
break by
driving a tank of fuel (about 4 hours) and let me get some sleep and
rest.
I don't sleep worth beans in a car or airplane usually. I actually got
about
an hour of sleep. I haven't figured the mileage yet but the TRuck
definitely needs an oil change. Two weeks ago it was 6-PACK TRials in
Wisconsin.
Man, what a vacation!!

Jim;
It is a "Tommy's" Trailer. It is aluminum with an aluminum skeleton and a
vinyl cover. It is made in Ada, Oklahoma. It has a 7000# capacity, all four
wheels have brakes (thank God after pulling it over Monitor pass @ 14k ft),
"D-rings" in the floor to anchor the car, etc. It is specifically built to
haul cars. We have had it for about 11 years and love it. If you were at the
TRials in the past years you probably saw it. If you need more info let me
know. We have been coast to coast with it.
