my new truck and trailer thanks to dad
with everything going on and sometimes not using my brain, i have been paying a crazy storage bill since the storm, almost 600 a month, well its getting a bit much, so with the help of my dad i was able to get a 2012 gmc crew cab k2500 hd pick up and a brand new 24 foot enclosed car trailer he bought straight up so i just have a small payment to him until the house is completely done then i will try and pay him back in full, Hecht trailers took care of me with the price and dad paid for it, this is the 4th trailer over the years i have gotten from them,
the last truck i got ended up being sold to me from a dealer that bought it at auction that was under the knowledge it was a voluntary turn in,,,aka repo. ok no big deal really clean for a black truck and no paint work, but ended up being a sandy victim, to many little things going wrong and everything under truck was rusted to hell on a 2012 gmc with 14k miles on it, so it went back,
will put some pics up soon of the new tow rig and trailer,

my old man just bought an 11 gmc sierra 3500hd with a duramax and allision. we just towed a 24ft trailer and the car for the first time. man i have to say that thing was nice. plenty of power and an engine brake. not sure if you have a dmax or not but its a nice truck. good luck with it.

Just had my wife's Tahoe tuned by Blackbear Performance. Made a huge difference. Look them up when you are ready for a tune. Good luck with the new truck and trailer.

did not expect dad to help out at all,
to all that know me i had a partner [ pete ] that i did all of my third gen parts with, well we had a falling out after the sandy storm, well it took some time but we were able to finally talk and work things out even let me barrow his homemade trailer out of a chevy truck 8foot bed, this way my dad could empty the shore house 2 car garage, lots of older car parts were stored there and are all trash now,
