Hi everyone
was wondering how would you get a chance to tow cars & car trailers when you dont have your own place to be able to store things and have the independence & group of friends where you also help each other or when you havent had much of a father you could do it with when you were about uni age or a car with enough towing capacity or probably bit of everything. wondered because you may remember when the sisters astras engine blew up coming back from adelaide in february and the father towed it to its new location. bosses little car which is a hyundai getz broke down & has to be brought to one of the shop owners nephews workshop on a car trailer, it sounds like its done a gearbox or cv shaft. just feeling like that am never going to get a chance & havent had the chances most people in their 20s/30s & some of the reason may be that dont have the group of friends most people have and dont have own place even if its a workshop to start with & because most have a father that could be there. most wouldnt work weekends or at least not every weekend & would have a father thats there atleast while theyre uni age & at that point in their life where they start doing those things. what would be a intern solution until you can get own place which youre not in a hurry to do & just want a storage and workshop area to start off & until youre no longer working weekends when most events are on & until you have more friends. dont have 2+ grand to just go out & buy a brand new trailer then may have had a chance as if that was case then would have hired a car trailer & took old chassis to scrap yard. a decison had to be made between brand new trailer & new tv and because new tv was decided then only option was give old chassis one more chance before deciding thats it. |

if it isnt your car that needs to be towed, you dont need a trailer. let the car owner sort out their own problems.
unless you need to frequently tow, you dont need a trailer. borrow or hire. |

It means larger trailer or van Last chance was over 10 years ago and waited a lot longer than most these days would wait What could you do |

You want to buy a trailer you don't need instead of the new TV you don't need either?
in which case stick with the TV

What's your question?
This guy posts a topic, reads the first response, maybe replies with irrelevant information to that post and then completely forgets he wrote a post and then asks the same or similar question days later. There's no reason to respond to this guy.
