While I have been waiting for the car to get done I have gotten ready for taking the car to the track as well as to Sema and other shows.
The car will still be street driven but I needed to be able to travel longer distances with out adding too many needless miles to the drive train.
The truck is a 2001, low mileage Silverado, 2500HD. The wife actually suggested I buy a truck to tow the trailer. I think she just wanted me to be able to haul junk to the dump. I may have to get the truck painted victory red to match the trailer/car.
The trailer is a Haulmark 20' show car trailer. The trailer was custom ordered as Victory Red was an option from Haulmark.
Can you guess what's missing in the last picture?

 

Nice truck man, did you get the Diesel w/ it? Or just a regular gas hog? But when you suppose to be getting your car back? So we can see it in that trailer of yours, BTW nice trailer love the color!

 

yeah that **** better be blowin black smoke!!!! gas is for ******

 

No, I guess I am just a *****. I had very little to choose from in a used truck and of the dozen I looked at all were gas hogs. The diesel guys weren't selling their trucks. Even all the 4x4's were just gas ones. I wasn't going brand new either because I am not a truck guy and the extra money for a new diesel truck is better spent on the car.
I hope to see my car in the trailer in August. I will have a better idea of the timeline when the shop doing the rwd conversion starts their work. That is supposed to be this coming week.
I too love the color and that is why I chosse Haulmark over Pace.

 

Between the motorhome,truck,trailer and cars you are going to need a bigger driveway.LOL

 

nice truck but personally i like fords diesils or dodges im not a fan of the chevys but to each his own nice trailor and truck.

 

Diesel FTW, I love emm, The new fords (2008) kick some ass

 

Actually Mike, there is an RV driveway beside the house where we will put the trailer and the motorhome. I just need to do a small clean up as we just had the yard landscaped and all the extra stuff needs to be moved still.
As for Dodge vs Ford vs GM trucks, I really didn't want a truck. I have never had one and other than the fact that parking/towing the trailer was going to be a hassle with just the motorhome, I wouldn't have got a truck.
Do you think I can tow 7,000lbs with the new Camaro or Challenger????
