Hick has now swapped out his 16-foot double-axle dovetail trailer for a new model. It wasn't a switch of convenience, but rather a switch of necessity. You may recall that easygoing Hick had loaned his old trailer to The Buddy, whose relative wrecked it during inclement weather. Lest you feel uncertain about the term "wrecked," allow me to provide this visual:
There it is, sitting at the top of the BARn field, with our front yard/field visible through the little forest. This is where the towing company left it.
Obviously, that trailer can't be fixed. And the tires are not salvageable.
Here's the new (used) trailer that Hick found for $1,900:
It's parked down in front of the BARn, with much of Hick's glorious junk on display. Like his two tractors, one of which I'm pretty sure is working. Once again, Hick has taken a panoramic photo that does not show off the subject to its full advantage.
There. Fixed that for you. It doesn't look as long as the old trailer, but I guess Hick knows more about it than my non-mechanical eyes.
As I type this, it is Sunday afternoon. Hick says The Buddy is coming to his shop today to make a payment on an item he had previously purchased. At that time, Hick will discuss the pay-back plan for this trailer. Hopefully, both parties will be satisfied with the proposal.
