I would say something but then I would have to go to an intervention... :cry:

OK Rick, You talked me into it...

This is like the 3rd or 4th time I have seen someone trying to sell trailers in a group. It would seem to me that he would be better off selling them one at a time.

I'm thinking he is a guy that is either burnt out on working on them or he just wants to get out of the "trailer selling business" all together.

Anyways Since I have seen this on several occasions I was thinking of building a trailer hauler kind of like a car hauler, that I could tow behind a truck. It would be able to haul 5 -6 trailers depending on length.


In one of the albums I saw an old picture of a guy hauling trailers.

Being able to buy them all at once you may get them at a pretty good price...

I could also use the hauler to haul teardrops for manufactures or to pick up trailers I buy from different people.

Just thinking out loud, this may be more hassle than it is worth, but on the other hand it may be a way to supplement my semi retirement, when the time comes...

U haul used to use the concept.They had fifth wheel style ramp trailers that would haul 3(Ithink) small trailers on the 5th and were mounted with a hitch in front and tie downs on the axle.Then a 4 th could be hitched as a tag along.Wish iI had a pic.

Ok
I just got off the phone with the guy.

He wants $650 for the compact Shasta (says he has wings for it)

He wants $500 for the Yellowstone

He wants $1250 for the 61 15ft Scotty ( says it has wings on it, rare, said Scotty got into a lawsuit over the wings with Shasta) and not to many known to exist. I'll have to check that out...


Also found a 19ft 1968 Yellowstone in CT. for $200 it has been gutted but he said it is in decent shape, has a good Awning on it and all the lights work.

HMMMMM decisions decisions

Somebody help me.....
