    C'mon Everett, we sat across from each other at the same table at The Beefeater or whatever it was called. I was the short guy with curly blonde hair.

    Sorry my friend, must be a senior moment on this one. I met so many folks and had a great time. What is ur name? I am embarrased to have to ask but don't have any choice.

    Just put new tires on my trailer. The ones I took off were original. Bought this trailer in winter of 2000. Tons of miles and time on them. Hope these last just as long.

    I still have the original tires on my open trailer I bought in 1999. I have checked them over...no cracking. My brother bought his enclosed trailer the next year and he is on his second set of tires. First set weather cracked bad. :huh:

    Does ur trailer sit exposed to the sun "ultraviolent" all day? U can't tell the condx the rubber just by lookin, esp. on the interior. If the tires were/are exposed to sun constantly and 13yrs old, I'd be a little uncomfortable towing on this hot pavement. But, that's just me...
