[Ronald Lipton]

I believe that Stan only uses Triad now.  I have an old, falling apart, 
Trailmaster which I took
back to the factory a few years ago to have resurrected (for a few 
years).  The folks there
(near South Bend, Ind.) said that they had sold quite a few trailers to 
GB in the 80s, but no
longer make trailers for them.
