Naaaaaa. F.O.B. C'ville,Kan. Sorry ,doug. I got busy with some last minute loading issues. I'll get you those pics tomorrow. I can tell you anything you want to know about it @ St.A.. I'll add one negative to the list though. You would likely want to repaint it. original red is in perfect condition on 3 sides but the passenger side is scratched all to hell. It looks like someone took a dirty push broom after it. Honestly,it would be perfect for your needs. Open floor,no walls,from rear door all the way to the bed. I love it,nothing wrong with it, but, I have outgrown it. I love all the room to roam around in it unlike the toter. Toter is due for a remodel probably next winter. Add a couple slides will make it a lot better.

Need to update the toter huh? Might I suggest this? They say less is more.

Nope, I called Dibs. This is my thread  rofl

This picture will do for now. Send more when you can. I did find the old build thread you started back in 2009. I remember fast giving you some grief about all the extra weight you were putting in it which brings up 3 more questions... What is the weight of the trailer? What size axles do you have under it now? What type of gas mileage do you get pulling it with your Duramax?

You should just bring it to Saint Anthony and we will have a big show and tell.

Honestly,I have no idea the weight. If you like the pics I could take it in to the scales. I believe I put 3 7K Dexter ez lube torsion axles under it with a 3" higher ride.6 wheel brakes.  Milage varies of course depending on terrain. I also don't seem to get anywhere close to the milage most claim for their empty duramax's. So,with that said I have seen as high as 12 and as low as 8. Bear in mind I only average 13.5 hwy mileage or so empty.

About the same as LS from you. ;) ;) ;D Someone needs to buy it. It is well worth the 15 and it costs very little in taxes since it is registered as a regular trailer. At least in Kansas that is how it works.  Oh,I forgot to mention the Xantrex 2500 watt inverter charger. The best there is.Add up all the stuff this thing has and it's almost like getting the trailer shell for free.

 Oh,pics won't come till tomorrow,sorry guys. The thread doug linked to gives a pretty good idea of how it looks though.
