I recently went to an auction and bought a 10 year old gooseneck trailer. It belonged to an older gentleman who bought it used it once and ended up going into a nursing home. It was in a shed the entire time so it's in excellent condition. I had a heck of a time hooking it up at first because the hitch wouldn't sit down on the ball very far. Come to find out mud dobbers had built a nest in there. Finally got that cleaned out and hooked up to find out the wiring wasn't long enough to reach my plug in. I had some magnetic lights to get it home at least but got to talking with the auctioneer before I left. He told me the reason it's to short is because I was hooking it up to my bumper and that was illegal. He said he didn't know it either till a couple months ago he was pulled over and told gooseneck trailers are supposed to be hooked up to a socket in the bed of the truck or the headache rack of a flat bed. I've never heard of that but he said it's one of those laws that's never enforced. My other gooseneck trailer is only a couple years old and is plenty long enough. Just curious if anyone else has heard this.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
