Me neither, but if you have ever had a trailer push you arround... you will want to share with the world "don't do what dumbass me did!"

What about loading the car backwards so the heavy end is towards the rear?

Lol yes I know about a trailer pushing you around I drive one often. I was just sharing because it can be dangerous not only to you but other people on the road.

Re: There goes my baby

I think he needs a taller reciever to put in his hitch. I think it would help a lot. There is a combonation of things he could do to try to make the best of what he has to work with. I'm not being overly critical here...I just used to tow a lot (as a job) so I know my isht.

Re: There goes my baby

My lovely lady has been back home for a couple days, but haven't had time to update this since my teal broke.

Transmission swap went very well. She made the trip home flawlessly. The 4.44's are completely awesome. Another one back on the road!
