Love it brother, nothing better than being able to tinker on your favorite things. Soon as I get a little property I’ll do my best to fill it with dirt bikes cars and older trucks especially Mack’s 👍🇺🇸. You need a 40’-45’ RV to pull with it ! Man that would be perfect. Oh ok I watched till the end, car trailer tug, sweet
