We picked up my wife's new horse trailer yesterday.
I am not as exciting about it as I would have been a new 7-ton deckover deal, but at least I have the gooseneck installed now. Plus the price of the future deckover will seem "cheap" to her after what she just shelled out for the horse trailer
Unfortunately, I decided to yank the TracRac (still shows in the photo). The rails of the TracRac took up valuable clearance given the height of the truck. I think I'll put in a headache rack to protect the cab. I have been very lucky over the years to NOT take out the back window heaving in firewood. Hopefully I can find an easily removeable ladder rack for the back - any recommendations?
I am a gooseneck noobie - but drove this rig 200 miles home yesterday - man WHAT a difference compared to bumper pulls!!! I am already a huge gooseneck fan. Gotta spend some time backing/manuevering..... I guess it is easier once you get the feel for it.
