Not really any fairbanks people visit this thread besides me. I rent a place sort of downtown near the Carlson center. Pretty nice area. I've only been here since January so I can't be much help for you.

I have some buddies that fly Kiowas up there. If I can get them to stop holding hands I'll try to get one of them on here to link up with you.

I have to pick up an atv trailer in wasilla and drag it back to anchorage today. Problem is I don't have the wiring harness installed for the lights yet.

A buddy of mine said its legal to pull it during the day as long as my jeeps lights were visible. I think he's full of shit but figured I'd see if you all have heard this?

Well I used to be a cop in az and that was the law there... If you can see the tailights on the vehicle you didn't need lights on the trailer. Ak might be different but I think you should not get hassled for just one trip

Thanks. I think you're probably right. As long as I'm just transporting it home I shouldn't catch too much grief.

I've seen a lot worse on the Glenn. *If* you happen to get pulled over just explain the situation and they should let you go. Worst case you get a "fix-it" ticket.

As long as you're not doing 120 mph, cutting people off while blasting Ice-T "Cop Killer" and drinking a fifth of jack you should be fine.
