Well...and here I thought I wasn't going to get a decent start any time soon! LOL
As excited as I am, there's still lots of stuff I need to sort out.
For one thing, how am I going to get everything? I'm doubting people will want to bring things to me, as I have seen lately some mobile repairs that say they pick up. My problem is that I have a dinky little sedan that currently doesn't have a trailer hitch, and even if I got one, the owner manual says not to tow more than 1,000 lbs. Even a small utility trailer could weigh up to 500, and that wouldn't leave much left for the equipment loaded onto it.
I guess little things like chainsaws, weed whackers and such I could put in the trunk...maybe a smaller lawn mower.
Anybody know where I can get a trailer hitch (and installed) and a little utility trailer for free/cheap?
And I'm thinking of those flatbeds with a 'cage' around it... not necessarily a totally enclosed one (though that might be nice for winter time)
