Tales of the TOAD

[pgchin]

For years we used a little 4x8 trailer to haul around a Harley dresser. Added one of these for the mutts.


Man, that thing attracted more attention then the bike or bird. People would stop us everywhere wanting one. Then old age decided I was having too much fun and an inner ear issue developed with severe balancing issues and I could no longer ride in the mountains. So one of the neighbors was selling their brand new 2007 chevy malibu for 1/2 price, 6 months old with 2k miles on it. He had just purchased it but developed a case of dementia and could no longer drive. He tried to give it to his grand daughter for free but she said it was too plain so he got P'oed and sold it to me. We got LUCKY! It towed 4 down and is the daily driver. Fold down seat, 4 door, great for the mutts, man that thing is like a mini pickup truck with HUGE trunk, I haul everything around in that thing. 4 cyl 30MPG and cheap wheels! Fast forward several years, I'm better now with the ear thing BUT not 100% healed, I still get nauseous on the bike in the mountains so it looks like a 4 down deal will always be in my future! I STILL need to drive a car in the mountains and can't ride as a passenger, driving forces me to concentrate and not get nauseous. UGH!!!!!!!!!!
