I picked up a MKT-99 Thursday from GL, I am not going to be able to look at it for a couple of days, so I had my daughter and a couple of her friends go an take some photos of what is inside. Unfortunately they took more photos of them selves than they did of the trailer! But from what I can...
I need one, I had a large tarpaulin on the front of the trailer to protect the vinyl from the wind. The tarp disintegrated, when it did the wind blew into the back of the trailer blowing our the side curtain at the seam, the thread just let go! PM me on what you want for the panel, the wind...
I should have taken mine, 9 miles a gallon in the Armada picking it up, heavy and a lot of wind drag when it is on the trailer! Good luck with your adventure.
I guess I just missed you guys pickup your trailers, the NG guy said he just loaded out two on one trailer! I haven't opened mine yet, I did tear up my left side vinyl covers during the trip, just in case you have no buyers!

If picking up a MKT these are three things I have learned after a 1200 mile trip:
1) If it is not stretched wrapped as below you are asking for trouble, the wind will do terrible things to your canvas!
2) These trailers are really heavy in the rear, if you do not strap the tongue down, you...
I can understand manpower shortages, I work in manufacturing and we are located in a small town, I am a hundred people short now, raised starting pay, went to three day weekends off and still I am short people! But being open a Monday or a Friday would be a lot more customer friendly.
She is helpful, kind of hard to tell her mood over the phone, what's up with no pickup on Mondays and Fridays, are they just trying to make it hard on those of us who have regular jobs!?!?!? It's a 600 mile trip one way, I guess I will take two days of vacation and make my pickup next week.

Jason, long time no hear! I didn't know you had a kitchen trailer? I tried to pick up a 931 at Shelby but some dip stick thought he was on Epay and would bid every fourteen minutes and 50 seconds, it got old after two or three time, so I guess I will just take the car hauler the 1200 miles...

Won a MKT-99 today! i talked tow one of the guys there and he said they were pretty much unused since the were rebuilt . Anyone know the tongue weight when loaded?
I have been watching for one of the German trailers (with fryers), I last saw two down at Little Rock GSA, I hesitated and they were gone! So the higher the model number the newer the trailer? If they have 28 volt gen sets will they run on 24/110 volts too? Thanks for the info. I really want...
The paint is running thin on the front of my M1008 and yellow paint is showing through? Anyone have an idea of why the nose was painted yellow at one time? It's military life was as a communications truck, four antenna mounts and power run to the bed and I purchased it off Little Rock air...
I have one just like it, a real work horse, unfortunately with mine I use it an hour and work on it for three! But it still does more in an hour than I can do without it in a day! Mine does have only one seat that folds forward and backwards.
