Tandem towing
Ernie. It sounds like those suvs could arive at the scene, before the fleetwood.
They all look the same, going over the cliff. I'm modifying my 17 ft trailer, so
I can pull both my motorcycle and my Beamer with me. I stretched the tounge,
with heavy wall square tubing, so now it's 21 ft. I fabricated a ramp, that
extends over the tounge, for the bike. It all unbolts easily, and you can slide
the tounge back, to make it 17 ft again. I added a breakaway. I like the idea of
a tralier much better than 4 wheels on the ground, or even a tow dolly, Ever
try to back either one up? I know the downside may be being restricted on where
you can go, but after pricing what it takes to fit a vehicle for tow, I think
it's cheaper to trailer. You can buty a new tralier for around $1400.00, with
electric brakes, load it, and go!

Hey Ernie,

We should look at the bottom of the pass. May be some good parts
available on the road side? I personally would never pull two of
anything on a highway.
