Iam a little late on this one, and glad you are home safe and sound.

When the timing chain broke 500 miles from home, we rented a U-haul truck and trailer. This is a safer way to go than using a dolly. I had all 4 wheels off the ground. towing anything is risky, no sence sticking our necks any farther than necessary.

I have seen a lot of cars being towed on dollys, usually behind a motor home, and they usually track ok, and have seen some towed behind a pickup driven by a good ol boy, I want to be far away from.

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
