    About to put the Charger HC up for sale, looks like, and no Hellcat Durango either

    Not really. You can live in your car, but not drive a house.

    About to put the Charger HC up for sale, looks like, and no Hellcat Durango either

    As long as the house has four doors, or more, you'll be okay. Magnified.

    Yeah, there's a reason I mentioned that winches can be handy anyway. You could possibly order it with lower rated springs, or swap them out yourself. I'm about to put air springs on my little 18-footer. Better ride yet, and I could lower it for loading and unloading. I wish my 32-footer was...

    Ah, sorry, that's what I meant by "side door". A large section, not just a regular door. And I lucked out when ordering the trailer four inches taller than stock (for better clearance in remote areas) as they lowered the fenders accordingly. No need to remove the fender even with the 'Cat.

    Or, order the trailer with a side door and there's no need for a winch. Well, they can be handy anyway, but the side door makes it easy to get in and out of the car.

    With that kind of a trailer you'll probably get at least 7,000-lb axles, which is fine, but you also get the suspension to go with it. If my 32-foot gooseneck had leaf spring suspension, I wouldn't want to transport only a 5K lb. car on it. With air suspension it rides nicely, no matter how...

    Hah! And you're "admiring" the small section of it that's a patchwork of various sizes of gravel, added based on what I had on hand when expanding the size of it over time. Pavement? Meh, that's for city slickers.

    Funny how that works. I'm hoping for colder overnight temps as it's been quite warm here lately, and not all that cold at night. Why, you ask? I need to retrieve the snow blower from the shed, and don't want to sink into the grass, leaving tracks with the tractor. Although, there is still about...

    Yeah, that 18-footer wasn't bought with Challengers in mind, but at the time the alternative was a 30' gooseneck deckover with a fixed beaver tail. No way the 'Cat would make that breakover angle. I'm frequently one trailer behind compared to vehicles, it seems like. But at least I ordered the...

    About the only "advantage" I can think of with a bumper pull is that it can be towed with vehicles that shouldn't be towing anything. Sorry, Gatzby, but been there, done that, which is why I feel that way.

    That looks like the angles would be quite similar to my 32-foot gooseneck with a hydraulic 10-foot dove tail. I did the math at some point to see how tall and long the ramps would have to be, but don't remember what I arrived at.

    I have become a firm believer in wheel nets. Now I have a set specifically for that tire size.

    Trailering

    Never having seen a Hellcat in the flesh before, I wasn't sure what I was in for when picking mine up. Foolishly brought short ramps, and thank God for the rear trailer jacks and that I'd brought a fair amount of 2x4 pieces. Had to crank the front of the trailer up by well over a foot to clear...

    Finally saw a Charger that made me sick

    You guys didn't know that all Chargers will be retroactively changed to 4-doors? It's to sooth the owners of the current model, a spokesperson for Stellantis said.

    Thinking about a TRX - Anybody know a good dealership?

    I doubt that my favorite dealer has any more allocations, but we got almost 9K off of MSRP. You need to search a bit harder, I think.

    C'mon, Magnified. Lambo has made 4-doors, and you know it.

    Which Battery Impact Wrench

    Not to stray too far from the subject, but our Mexico and Brampton made FCA vehicles are noticeably better put together than are the US made ones. And it kinda hurts to say that.

    Which Battery Impact Wrench

    Just so that nobody thinks that I completely partial to Milwaukee, I do have DeWalt power tool that works well. Once I modified it.

    Which Battery Impact Wrench

    It seems like most people I know, or of, start out with something, then end up with a Milwaukee. If so, I highly recommend the M18 Fuel, with its four torque settings. Although, final torque is obviously done with a torque wrench.

    You mean like this Gatzby inspired one?
