I bought Rich's show stuff, then his trailer, and then his truck. The truck and trailer are about 10 years old.

He wrote an article about about trailer safety and pics are in the article. If you click on the trailer pic, you can see a larger pic.

And if you have to ask how much it's going to cost or how quick it's going to get done, don't bother going there. The answers are "a lot" and "right after we finish this Pebble Beach car we're working on".

I have heard a few stories that the owner is not easy to deal with. Did your run into any other problems?

We just went out for a ride and Kerrie has had a change of heart. She went from hating the idea to really liking the truck a lot.

I think she expected a loud, smelly, nasty looking truck. She is definitely cool with it now.

Yep. Vehicles are everywhere.

Yeah David, you need a car-guy castle. Trust you are already scoping out a site.

Take my advice, don't go too small on the garage. Mine is a 6-car, but 3 wide x 2 deep. I bought the house this way, so I didn't have a choice. However, it fills up fast. Definitely have a door for every car you want to drive on a regular basis, and have an "off-limits" area for the nice cars. Don't forget to have someplace to park that truck/trailer too.

Hey, what about the old Wagner car dealership? Is that still for sale?

We've been looking for about 2 years now, but what we're looking for doesn't exist.

1. Alex has to be able to go the same school. There are two intermediate schools in Granby, CT so right away 1/2 the choices don't work. 1 more year in intermediate school and then we might have a few more options.

2. Must have at least 2 acres. Our lot right now is very small and I'm sick of looking at my neighbor's ricer car.

3. The wife would like a "nice looking" house. Her style is more of a McMansion type house, which is not for me. Something in the middle would be OK.

4. Garage - as you described.

5. Not on a mountain side. Alex likes playing baseball in the backyard and I don't feel like playing on a 45-degree angle.

With these conditions, we have not been able to find anything. Right now things are getting packed in but everything is manageable, and our ricer neighbor thinks we are mulletastic.
