    First thing is realize you got $22 more than you'd planned. You can put that in a separate account without giving up anything; plus a percentage of the planned on amount. Three or 4 more runs and start looking for a small, lightweight trailer the Camry can handle - even if only 2-300 pounds, it will make a lot of difference. Pretty soon, you'll get an old pickup and a bigger trailer. Sell the old trailer to a new scrapper. Keep this up - it works. There are several here who did just that.

    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.
