Hahaha
Good luck on finding more time to play after retirement, I retired 6
years ago and never been so busy in my life.

I will get the bed removed from it sometime this year when I get my tilt

bed finished.  I am going to get a winch bed on the firetruck rigged to
pull that gooseneck.  this fuel price thing sorta slowed me down a

few things.
