Aldon 4,826 #5 Posted April 3, 2017 If you want to drop that off at my place as you head west, feel free. It's beautiful. I personally can't see the differences in the red. And engine heat may change the color anyway. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes Mike I am selling my SUV and my enclosed trailer and picking up a small car that I can tow with a dolly. The price of the SUV will buy the car/ tow dolly. Those dolly are big $$ now because they have breaks and remote steering. The easy way to tow a car. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smart to use the tow dolly instead of flat-towing the dinghy. We did a cruise to Alaska last year, and I have always wanted to drive the Alaska Highway since 1972. I see the 2017 Milepost has been published. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
