Wow, very nice! And is that a Z06 parked behind it? How cool. Nice place to keep it during these awful upcoming winter months in Michigan. Looks like after all the snow we got on Monday, mine won't be coming out anytime soon....

ya i think thats a GMC Yukon, not sure though... but you lucky bastard, got your car a mobil home, my car's house are the outdoors, my moms dam falcon is in the garage.
Very nice, keep that thing protected from the winter elements.....
Be careful though.......now the alarm system on your car is worthless.......All somebody needs to do is get a hitch, back up to the trailer and driver away......
I don't know about Michigan, but without some sort of safety device that trailer would be gone in about 3 days down here......
It's worth it to look into that, but it looks like the yellow SUV is doing the job....

yeah it's a yukon painted custom yellow from gm 1 of 1 with custom 20's. the truck isn't mine though, i'm looking for one similar in a 3/4 ton as 1/2 won't do the deed. 
as far as security.........just picked up an extra camera for the interior as well as the combined weight of the car and trailer exceeds 8,000. that yukon can barely pull the thing so i'm not to worried not to mention the brakes are setup to lock so they will have one hell of a time pulling her.
it's like anything, if someone wants it they will take it no matter what's done to it for security.
here's another pic....

i'd tell you but you all would laugh............. 
ok:
i picked up my first car for a deal, so much so that when it was totalled i made enough money to purchase my 91.
when i was younger i used to play alot of video games, i won few competitions with some hefty prize money and threw it all in the bank. when i got into highschool i was really interested in finance and investment. had some money laying around from my younger days so i played with it and the rest is history. now i work part time doing investment consultance and website sales while finishing my degree.
it isn't anything someone else couldn't do. while most were out partying in highschool and spending their money, i wasn't. i paid my dues, now it's time for me to play.
i worked my *** off to get where i am and it was worth every penny.

Just goes to show that you are a smart man. And you don't have to be old to be smart with your money.
What does a trailer like that cost? round numbers will do.
Here's what your cars can look like without some kind of winter protection. I do have a garage but it didn't make it this night.

new they are around 11,000 with all the bells and whistles....i happened to pick mine up for alot less. it's a 02 though but for the most part they do hold up their value. once you get above 20' they get expensive, especially if you have any interior options like the finished floors, walls, roof, etc. and the electrical.
i figure when all is said and done with the trailer and truck to pull it this little expenditure will cost me roughly 40,000 easy.

Good show. Glad to see all your hard work paid off. Excellent Trailer too. Hey if I sent you say $1000 can you make it into $10,000 for me???LOL! J/K
Seriously sounds like you've wroked hard for all your toys, that is good to hear. Better then being one of those rich kids that Mommy and Daddy pay for everything, and let their kids sit on their a$$es all day and do nothing. See everyone...hard, honest work does pay off. Good work! My hat goes off to you!

honestly, i probably could.........wouldn't be the first time. although i recommend that everyone do it themselves; i just keep an eye out and let them know if something they are about to do rubs me the wrong way. it can be alot of reading but it pays good.
the market is a big game basically, with many ups and downs. just like a car if you do your research before hand you can really get a jump on things.
i really like using ameritrade, 1,000 to start and the possabilities are endless.

If I knew how to do stocks, I'd probably start.
So who's Lamborghini is that anyway?

stocks aren't that hard, it's just reading up and having a way with knowing what to look for.
as far as the other question, my whole life can't revolve around the z you know. it's amazing what you can find at police auctions..........

i have three harddrives with more than enough room... no digital camera though, yet anyway.
there's no need to have tons of pictures of the car, i have my photo album at that's the extent of it. i never post such things because then everything becomes an issue over the car. like it has here. i wouldn't even have pictures of my camaro on the hardrive if it wasn't for sites like this..........they don't exactly have a site for those types of cars; even if they did i wouldn't bother hanging around them. people that own cars like that typically are jerks and aren't into cars anyway. it's just a status thing.
that's what i get for posting anything i guess.
o'well........:lala:
