Re: [mg-tabc] T types and trailers hi folks - first up, my delay replying to quite a few emails is due to my modem getting zapped by lightning! having an iMac it is neither easy nor cheap to replace, so am guesting on my daughter's computer while going through the [b]197[/b] emails in the last week. hey ho! I do indeed tow quite a large all-steel trailer loaded with several hundred pounds of spare parts (for sale, not for the TC!) to Silverstone behind the TC, which slows me down a bit on the hilly bits (with my 4.625:1 rear end I sometimes need 2nd. gear going up) but am grateful for Bob Grunau's Alfins to get me safely down again! No problems with stability, even at 60mph plus... Happy [b]M[/b]otorin[b]G ! [/b]Roger

T Types and Trailers

Team, Just flicking through the Fleetwood RV Catalogue. (Don't ask why an Australian is looking through a US RV manufacturer's catalogue, its a long story). In the catalogue they have a time line of their products produced through the years of their operation. There is a photo of a TD with a good sized Caravan (Trailer for the USA residents). Is anyone familiar with this? Murray (Constantly amazed at what you Yanks get up to...........) Oz....... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

Oh, God! Next note from Murray has him posed next to a "Land Yacht" motor home, Blue Mountains in the background, with a 'roo stuck through the grill and a T car on a trailer behind....... :-)) Chuckling at the visuals in Tennessee, Ray
