    Thanks for the kind words...

    Well I'm impressed you notice the details like the tube top. The 2720 has loaded rear tires (beet juice) , so it's fairly heavy, so I opted for a few extra gate supports so I don't bend up the expanded metal mesh, a few welded D rings for tie downs, fold down gate hinges and electric brakes on one axle. PJ makes a nice heavy duty trailer.

    Even though the trailer manufacturers do not upgrade the payload ratings for tube rails, owners and those who know, know they are much stiffer and less prone to bending over time with heavy use. Those sides look like they might be removable?

    I couldn't tell you what my wife was wearing yesterday but I sure did spot that Stihl BR550/600 (I
    m guessing its the 600. ;) ) in the back of that Gator. :D

    I have similar issues. Believe me. We could be afflicted with far worse conditions. :thumbs:

    Wish I had the property to play like you. ;) Some people just do it right. :cool::yes:
