here is my set up. 1987 Silverado with a new crate engine, 7X14 trailer and the works I got the truck, trailer (I built shelves and put up racks), snapper mower, EB8510, and m242 all this past year. I wasn't't going to get that size trailer but I got it for such a great deal so. I was originally using me old K5 blazer and a 5x8 open trailer, so this year I stepped it up. I know the logo couldn't't get anymore cliche, but that's what i like about, people see it and know exactly what type of business it is, no confusion. Well hope you enjoy
Thanks

You have a nice setup there. I like it, the truck looks to be in good shape too. I don't think I could keep and enclosed trailer that organized either. Planning to put helpers or airbags on the truck?

Thats a really nice setup. I Like the truck a lot!! Just wondered, I plan on adding a 36" wb next year and I just wondered with my two wb's plus a 21inch, would a 14ft enclosed have enough space? Does yours fell cramped at all? Looks like you have a decent amount of space, just was curious, because I might add a trailer like that eventually too. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Got to agree with that one!

To answer the guy's post about the 14' trailer.. I bought one a couple years ago, and outgrew it in about 6 months.

I'll never buy another trailer so small again!

Like the trailer and the setup. The best thing about your truck is it's PAID off. :nono:



Way to represent for the older truck crew.:waving: Keeping the overhead down. Smart Move!!!!

Nice Snapper walk behind, you don't see many of those at least in my area. How do you like yours? I have a gear drive 32 Snapper and that thing is built like a tank. Never had any problems with it and its a 1995 too.

Love the trailer. Organized, simple and neat. Very pro.

Nice set up. Looks similar to mine. One thing though is you need some helpers for those tired leaf springs. You may want to take any sort of drop hitch off that truck too. It looks like you are sagging in the middle. Put the weight on the trailer where its supposed to be. Its much cheaper to repair a trailer rather then your truck. Plus, I guarantee your rig will drive better and be easier to load and unload.

looks great. few questions though, which mower do you prefer? and did you buy the trimmer racks new? i sold some just like them almost brand new on ebay a while back...

I had a Lawnboy just like that and I loved it. It mowed for 10+ years and never gave a problem.:drinkup:

Your truck looks good, ever think of airbags to help out the back end?
