Wife's Revenge 'Taint So Sweet

Wife is making me swallow my own medicine now. She went and grabbed this Sundowner Pro Stock 2000 today.

Hope aluminum is the way to go, 'cause I know absolutely nothing about stock trailers.

On top of that, I gotta run darn near clear to Minnesota to pick it up. Sure hope she knows what she's doin'. :>(

That's the plan if we can figure out a way to get into the game without breaking the budget.

At least now, I think I've finally got her off that silly "Alpaca and Lama" kick. :>)

Allan

Great looking trailer! Mine's steel and it is HEAVY!

OBTW...May I use it next Thursday?...!

It was either a used aluminum or a new steel w/wood floor outfit; they were just about the same darned price. Plus, those flashy new Featherlites are just plain out of our league.

The silly things "just set" most of the time and we just figured that the anti-corrosive metal and tough floor was the way to go.

Lady that sold it is one of those "horsey" types and sure seems to have taken care of it.

We shall see, I guess.

Allan

I'm such a 'babe in the woods' on these things, I'm ashamed of myself.

It's a 7 X 7 X 18 bed and the lady that sold it claims that we "Won't even know it's back there" with the Powerstroke. Does that sound right to you?

I know with this flatbed I've got, I sure as heck know I've tied on to something.

Allan

When the grass greens up. But, the big push now is that she's gotta implant her two ponies over in Alliance here shortly and the mare has a date booked with a big feller over in Wyoming in May.

Fought 'er off as long as I could; but she was pretty darned adamant 'bout this trailer.

Talked to Curt over in Colorado before noon and he says that they are about the same price down there, so she snooped around and found this one up north. So, guess I’m just tryin' to keep piece in the family on this deal. :>)

How's the calving' comin'? Weather clear up for ya?

Allan

We got 2 red heads and 2 standard black & white Holsteins, all of them are breed and ready to go on a truck to a new home...

We're really watchin' the market and if the bottom doesn't fall out (which I really hope it doesn't for you guys' sake) we might have to go a different route.

Heck Dave, you might be a surrogate mama by this time tomorrow. We used to yank 'em right off the cow and into the bucket all the time. :>)

Allan

You're from Alliance?

Carhenge still there?

Went thru there in '93 and came across it. What a kick! They did a great job!

For those who don't know about Carhenge, it is a replica of Stonehenge, but made out of old cars stuck in the ground.

See: Link

I don't know what the deal was on that. Used to be one of those fields just littered with junk and sometime in the early 70s I went by there and there it stood.

I think somebody's wife told him to clean the darned place up. :>)

Since that time it has kind of caught on as a mini "attraction" and he keeps 'em painted up real well. Trouble is, it is way out off the beaten path tho; not a heck of a lot of traffic out in that area.
