Tow vehicle size and weight is as important as the ability to tow X amount of pounds - has to do with trailer weight and length compared to vehicle weight and length. I feel a rant coming on. I will refrain. :) A deer taught me a real good lesson about braking and maneuverability while towing. Damn straight. Around here, that's a real problem in the mornings and late evening. You just never know when the critters are going to come out of the wood work. Also renmember that when you see a deer crossing the road, there are usually a few more behind them that you haven't seen yet. Hitting a steer running across the road is a lot worse. Hitting a deer could total a car and kill occupants. What could be worse than that? Go learn to tie a bowline behind your back. That'll be some real useful nautical knowledge for you to have. The average deer around here weighs a couple hundred pounds. The average steer weighs about 1200 pounds. I hit a deer a few years ago. Did significant damage to the car. When I was in college, a dorm mate hit a steer. It put him in the hospital for five months and subjected him to years of reconstructive surgery. Idiot. I sure hope you don't have children. Since you have decided that family is fair game. What does your wife think of your girly posters? You did mention it a while ago, so let's try to be consistent with your story. You're projecting again, DimJim. The only poster with a woman depicted I have hanging anywhere in the house is from the movie Casablanca, and it is G-rated. I never mentioned I had "girly" posters. This obviously is another of your fantasies, like your fantasy about me being a draft dodger. You don't have children, do you? The horror of the possibility of inheriting your singular lack of IQ is...well, best left unsaid. |
