It's funny to me when people post non-discript thing without pictures for sale.
Looking into this ad, I feel like these are 2.3TLs. What do ya'll think? I'd at least like to have some sort of baseline before I would contact the seller.

    My 2.3TL are...

    20.5 x 13 x 55.

    They gotta be 2.3. $600 is a steal if they are decent.

    Hmm...come to think of it, my parents are in Washington by the ocean at the moment. I wonder if I could persuade them to haul them around for awhile till I get to Colorado and pick them up....hmmmm. I mean, the coach IS 44 foot...there should be space in there!
