[Bob Keller]

Ed,
Not sure at this point, but I am hesitant to sink more money into my trailer 
because it looks to be pretty old and has more rust than I would like.  I 
have already replaced the axle (3 years ago) but it now needs a new tongue 
extension, brakes, new bunks and the stabilizer which will likely run $1,500 
(the hitch equalizer is $600).  So, I am going to think about it some more 
since I do not have any more trailer trips in my immediate future.  I am 
leaning toward a new dual axle trailer, but I will be upgrading to a new tow 
vehicle in Q1 next year.  It's a company vehicle and my current one is 
nearing the end of its life.
