    it's straight, just kinda low. i think a third is a good idea.

    i guess OSH did not sell enough Yeti's at MSRP. i hate how they ask for my phone number to check out then get all pissed when i don't want to join their stupid purchase-tracking club.

    Was the trailer made in California? Usually that requires a DMV inspection(verification), or inspected by an officer of the law(cop). Oh, and I like your three halves reference.

    What I meant to say is that if the trailer WASN'T made it California it would require a verification. That was my experience. Guess they're saying it doesn't matter where it was made.

    Luckily we have a decent Ace down here but their tool selection is subpar even compared to the smaller selections at OSH. On the flip side there's an OSH in San Jose that's literally across the street from a Lowe's so I get that part of it.

    I thought maybe that's what you meant.

    Or we can just assume that whoever is working there on any given day for any given task likely has no fucking clue what they are doing? Or how to smile?

    The DMV is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.

    Look up “special construction”. Also, the fees are 9% of the cost.

    I had to wait for the VIN verifier to put a sticker on the tongue. Of course, they only have one and they were at lunch. You do not need a VIN or a title-or so I am told.

    I got a letter after the fact asking for yet another form...so there’s your chocolate :)

    Well, yes, that, too, is my experience. Further, at times, I believe that it is all a conspiracy. If they know you've been in before, one agent will go to the agent you saw last, and ask what answers they gave you. Then, for sure, they'll tell you something different just to piss you off.

    I drove the truck into work(RWC) and I forgot how much attention it’s gets now. I tried to explain the whole “panty dropper” theory and how bunk it is. She then chimes in with the “Dick magnet” theory being a much more realistic assessment of the situation. Then she starts singin “my taco shakes and brings all the dicks to the yard”...

    Yeah, she’s a keeper.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Anyone with some basic fab skills wanting a awesome deal on a mid skid?

    We have 4 mid skids with the front flange bent the wrong direction. they would need to be cut and welded back the correct direction.

    50 bucks picked up.
