Nice trailer. Negative tongue weight!   Did it swing like a pendulum as 70mph?! .

Reliable is a state of mind, so I'm sure it'll be fine. What are the plans?

Yeah, sketch. 50/50 weight distribution so whatever. PPI was dangling so we couldn’t go forward onto the trailer. But we got it where it needs to go so whatever.

Beat on it til it breaks, fix it just enough to sell it to a drift kid for way too much money

“Reliable” just means you have the knowledge and tools to fix it at the roadside when driving somewhere.

So David Tracy has a very reliable fleet minus the Austrian minivan. Got it.

Oh, the car is awesome, I just meant that those aren’t even headlights....they look like those Amazon.ca mini LED lightbar specials, meaning they aren’t properly calibrated for on-road use, nor would they have true low beam/high beam...

Guy said they worked, it’ll be fine I guess. It’s so low I doubt I’ll blind anyone.

 Sure feels counterintuitive, doesn't it?

That sounds like a really fun way to spend 900 bucks!

Oh hey the guy I sold my Cabriolet to has it running. Not driving but running.
