Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Call 641-227-3881, ask for Greg. I'm sure he has some good used ones at a reasonble price. He is north west of Baxter though.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
make sure if you go to the high life, that you get the bacon wrapped tater tots.
I think a Sat night trip to the High Life / El Bait shop sounds like an awesome plan. btw, when are all you KS / MO guys planning to be in town? |

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Question... we were talking about towing and had heard there might be tougher regulations in IA. Anyone know?

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Any tolls/weight stations we need to worry about with towing a truck on a tandem axle trailer w/ 1/2t truck?

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
I have never had a problem towing a Car/Truck and I use a One Ton Pickup. Just make sure its strapped good that is the only thing I have ever had a problem with. And there is no tolls in IA driving Hwy/Int. Can't wait to meet you guys.

Re: Des Moines Good-Guys (July 2-4)
Beautiful forecast! I hope it stays that way! As far as towing, just make sure to have your vehicle strapped at 4 corners. Other than that the IA DOT should leave you a lone.
