TEXAS to CO & Back

[Wild at Heart]

The weekend of 9/17/05 or the week of 9/18/05 I will be making a QUICK trip from Commerce, Texas (70 mi. NE of Dallas) to Delta Colorado to pick up my early Christmas Present from Jeremiah Proffitt (www.proffittscruisers). I will be pulling an empty 32' car hauler up there and will be returning with one BA Rock Crawler.

As difficult as it is to get parts / vehicles transported (I know...it took me 3-4 weeks to get my a 66' FJ40 shipped from Cedar Rapids, Iowa to Texas) I thought I would offer to take something (legal only !!!) that direction.

If you bring it to Commerce (or to a city on the way) and your receiving party will meet me on my route, I will be happy to haul it. Heck, I will still have 1 empty spot on the return trip to Texas so I guess I could bring something this way as well.

No I am not a commercial hauler and your load will not be insured (by me); however, I do not plan on wrecking my truck & trailer or messing up my new rig coming home and there will not be any overnight stays once I leave Colorado. This is a FREEBEE offer. Of couse with $3/gallon gas, I will accept any donations (but that is not required). I am going anyway.

Happy Trails!!!

Well, I'm in central TX and if it wouldn't be too much trouble I'll take one of whatever your having from Proffitts.

Why don't you show us this early xmas present.

I'm dying to show it off but I have been told that it just may be in a future Proffitts Cruisers article in Toyota Trails UNLESS I post up all the cool pictures of it on this and other sites. It is pretty sick and I can't wait to see it in person.

Hopefully, (assuming it gets finished), it will make it's debut at ICBM in Gilmer, TX. the weekend of 9/24.

Thanks for asking.

I was over at Proffitt's on Saturday and if your rig is the Crawler that I saw, then YES you do have one BAD ASS RIG. It is so awesome, you are going to be thrilled. Not to spoil it or anything. Have fun with it.
