Nice stuff guys.

My BIL was in the seamless gutter business for years. Sold out about 10 years ago. He used Grumman Alum Trucks with Dodge 360 motors. I think he had 3 trucks at the end.

I think your boom would have made him salivate. Always amazed me watching him put up a 40 foot run by himself.

Holmes 18ft landscape trailer

Trailer has built in D rings and gate lift springs which are great. Tow vehicle is 09 Ram Hemi 4x4 3.92 gears. I added Timbrens to the rear and it does not squat hardly at all. Well worth the $100 or so.

Don, that looks like a very well built trailer. I love how they hid the spring assist for the ramps and how you have typical ramps plus a full gate.

I just started a couple of seasons ago, thinking I'd build into a full time biz once I retired from my full time job.
Still at my full time job but did 75 gutter jobs in 2010 and 88 in 2011. I may hang it up in May and become a full time gutter man. 26+ years in the prison system is about enough!
Once you're in the biz for a while, a 40 foot run really isn't bad to do on your own if it isn't too windy. :laughing:
Doing a few minor mods to the '97 7.3 Powerstroke to give it a little more response. Did a new air intake and a 3 inch down pipe from the turbo. Have a Cali kit for the fuel pressure regulator and a new 6 position chip in the works.
