Very Nice

BTW Scott you are a maniac. 

Do you actually move all that stuff yourself or are you lucky enough to have roadies.  I sold my SVT's when i stopped having roadies/soundmen. 
I load the van for the gig myself, I get some help at the gig. We used to have a one man road crew he was great ! Then he went and got married and his wife won't let him come out and play :(

you are a better man than me.....  younger too....

 I actually haul  half of the pa as i have the biggest garage so i am probably just as crazy as you but i just have left space for bass amps....  I have to limit myself to either a 2/12  or 6 10 cab,  occasionally both for outdoor shows,  with  a rack with 2 ampeg hybrids, or 2 hartkes and a tuner/powerstrip

We can (barely)  fill a 6 x 12 trailer with all of our equipment.  Thankfully all of it is in road cases so it makes load ins/outs much easier.  Nothing can beat unloading the trailer at our climate controlled storage facility after a gig at 4 a.m. in 28 degree weather. (last Friday night)  At least it doesn't get that cold in TX.  :)

 I have it down to a science only takes about 5-10 min to load the van, about 20 min to unload and set up. I back right into the carriage house and load up, not heated but it sure beats lugging gear out of a basement !
