Looking forward to your reports guys.

I love that "Box" trailer! (Don`t they have to be registered?)     :drinks:

The plate might be on the other side, hidden from the current view.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Some states (Kentucky, for one, IIRC) don't require a plate for small trailers.

Minnesota just requires a one time registration sticker that's placed near the tongue.

In Kansas there is no registration or tag required for trailers that have a gross vehicle weight less than 2000 pounds. I got this tag for use when I go out of state. Keeps from being hassled by LEO's of other states.

How do you eat with a sticker on your tongue?   :sarcastic:

We pulled out at 6:00 am this morning. The Rally was a huge success. :dance2: Everyone stayed upright :yahoo:, at sometime over the weekend everyone got wet while riding. Some members almost got stranded by the flood that rolled through Hill City. A bunch of Harley's got swept up in the flood. No FJ's were harmed. There is an incredible video that should be posted of the Hill City main street being over run with water.

When we get home this evening I will post a ride report with photos.

I just got home from the rally, a total of 1266 miles round trip on the truck/ trailer and 506 on the FJ for the times we got out to play between the rain storms.

I have tons of pictures and video that I'll post when I get settled in.

Thanks to everyone that attended to make this one rally to remember, I had a blast!

It has a (permanent) Arizona registration tag on it.
The plate is mounted on the other side.

I like the "Box" sides on it, cause I can throw a bunch of other stuff in there with the FJ.

"AL's Bar & Grill" requires a lot of gear!  :hi:
