I wish I lived by that suggestion in the past because I missed out on some good cruise nights, since my rig was on jack stands in the shop when the weather was nice.
i deffinatly know what you mean by missing it on cruise nights! thats a good idea to work on it in the fall and accumulate parts over he spring and summer.

we bought it for 3,500
