    Which Trailer would you buy and why

    I've got a lead on two trailers. My trucks hauling capacity is 9,400 lbs. So one trailer will haul less and the other more. As I see it, the heavier trailer will cost more in gas and wear and tear on the truck when using it for light weight stuff, but I don't want to miss out on hauling jobs...

    Rake Found these used rakes on Craigslist - whacha think?

    The guy is stating its a Woods rake. Does it really look like a Woods rake to anybody? Reading a lot of reviews on the TSC rakes and there seems to be a big quality issue. Lots of people posting reviews of bending these rakes rather quickly. I always though the angle iron styles were...
