My dad left at 5:30AM driving my truck and pulling his new trailer. After stopping for breakfast (and like a bad penny) he was back at the hacienda by 7AM. It seems there was too much weight in the trailer which caused the trailer not to pull correctly at highway speed. Nothing like being stressed, having a million things to do and then having to redo one of the million things. We removed 500 pounds of weight plates (when you are as buff as I am you need much weight to lift) from the trailer purchased a different towing receiver and off he went.
That seemed to work as Jed Clampett is now carrying the contents of our shed and garage to California.
Anyone ever think about the old days of going in a wagon across these great United States?
