Set up pea'cup truck

yeah, Wayne's planes are stepchildren.  We put them in the trailer even 
when there's room in the cab.

And as a person that can speak from experience.  I have Ranger S.cab and 
the bed is not long enough for 2 meter airplanes.  The std length bed I 
think is long enough.  In that case a lift up fiberglass cover would work 
good.  A cap shell would give more hieght.  I made my trailer for 
$450.00.. less then the cost of most caps or fiberglass covers. I made a 
trailer thats 4x4x8 with a lift up lid.  Holds (2) 2 meter planes.  One 
must secure everything to keep it from bouncing around.

You see... I did it this way so Lance could put his airplanes in his 
Expidition and then he could pull my trailer when we go to the NATS.
