Very COOL Florida Chris, I didn't see the price out the door but if you can repost it that would help. KJRGT. lets get two, we can keep them at your house and I will pick mine up when I need it, deal?
Somebody educate a Texas dumbass. What is the advantage of having a winch to tow the car into the trailer? Don't you still need someone in the car to steer it straight? The tow hook location on the GT is offset to the side so towing it from the center of the trailer should tend to make it pull sideways if not steered. And if you have to be in the car to steer it anyway why not just drive it in under it's own power?
Like I said, Spirit really wants to know.:rofl

Well, I have a winch to put the car in the trailer in case it doesn't run. Though that would never happen to my GT :wink , I do track a Lotus. If it breaks or heaven forbid, crashes, I can still get it home.
And even though the GT has an offset tow hook it does pull quite straight. There is also a long extension remote control for the winch so you could actually sit in the car and operate it if you wanted. I personally like to walk beside it and steer through the window and winch it in. It is easier on the clutch and I can see better what is going on.
Hope this satisfies "Spirit's" curiosity. :thumbsup
......... I got on this forum a while ago and I have to say this is the first time I have heard a real insult.........
What insult?
Are you talking about us giving abuse to Spirit? It's all in fun I promise, as is his reply. :lol :lol :lol Hell, if we talked civil Spirit would probably think we didn't like him any more!
Spirit you want to chime in here and put Dan at ease?
arty arty arty arty. When I replaced my backhoe I realised I was chaining it down with binders and chains that were 30+ years old.

they said that the build on this trailer was completed like 15 days ago. they built it specifically to display at the B-J this january in order to try and get people to place orders for their trailers. so this might just be the one you saw. i am not sure when you picked yours up? in addition to towing a ford GT i will be using it to tow my viper too. in the pic below here you can see my V-10 powered ford F-250 superduty that i will be towing it with. i use my open bed tilt trailer to tow my ford lightning, camaro SS and my sandrail.
Yeah, only a Texan can call another Texan a dumbass and get away with it!:lol
MJ,Spirit, are you sayin' I gotta move to TX before I can get away w/callin' Silverbullitt a dumba$$? :shrug Hmmm... Might just be worth it. Could I ride a horse to work?:rofl :banana
Sorry for digging up an old thread but........I am thinking of buying one of these TRAILEX trailers for my FORD GT. My question is will my 2006 F150 (with a 5.4L) be able to pull this thing in the mountains. I live in the Seattle area and getting to points east or south require mountain crossing. Thanks
Chris pulled his with a Touareg, so.............
How fast do you wanna GO while mountain climbing?
