[Rhodes22-list] Seaward26RK

[RUSSELL MILLER]

i THOUGHT YOU WERE GETING THE MAGICTILT FROM SEWARD.  Triad does build a
better trailer but is it cost effective??  DEunno, Mike Orro (sp) is going
to advise us.  Logistics could be a problem here.   Want a triad trailer
with disc brakes & LED lights but need to communicate that.  I would assume
that GBI is out of the picture here and we are dealing directly with Triad
since I initiated the contact.

But, what say u?
