    That reminds me, the Lock-n-Roll did awesome towing! We took our trailer out as well, dragged it 300 miles each way, 5 miles of rutted out and washboarded roads. I am sold on the new drawbar.
    FWIW, I am using the Curt hitch, I welded it to the frame as well as drilled holes through the entire frame and used some long grade 8 bolts. Not going anywhere. I would guess the trailer weighed around 1500lbs or so. VX did well, didn't like steep hills, definitely a 3rd gear gas drinker. I was getting 11-13mpg.

    That trailer is awesome, where did you get the nice coiled connections?

    I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them.

    Thanks Tom ,
    We go out of our way to make that dog happy.
    The coiled cable is from Napa auto parts
    It's a commercial truck/ trailer harness
    and trailer connector.
