[72 tigger]

"Weight distribution" is very important when towing with a trailer- had my scariest moment in a vehicle while towing a C-10 with my 72 coil LWB back in 1995. I knew the tongue was on the light side (the trailer would start to sway a little from time to time). About 550 miles into the trip it cut loose & started whipping back & forth like a old hay wagon- I was all over both lanes of the interstate trying to get it back under control. It finally came out of it at roughly 40 MPH- much to my relief. I shifted my load forward (after I got all (4) wheels back on the trailer- one was hanging off) & it was fine. The only good thing was that it happened at 12:30 AM & I was starting to fight sleep- after that ordeal I was wide awake & drove until 5:00 AM
