[Shotimes] Re: (OT) Car Trailer for sale

[Rick Glass]

Dollies do not tow good if they are empty.  This I have learned, I towed one
empty to Atlanta to pick up a parts car, it was all over the place, almost
forgot the car was back there coming home, looked in the rear view mirror
once and though, "man this guy is riding my a$$", then remember I was towing
it, sleep deprivation can be dangerous.
