Sad sight to see....

I absolutley hate it when I have to see my truck on a trailer (it's also a pita to get on a trailer ha) The tranny has been slipping real bad for about 6 months and I finally had time to get it loaded up and drop off to my tranny guy. I cant wait til it's done

Sometimes being on a trailer is a good thing. Last time mine was on a trailer he was coming home....

Re: Sad sight to see....

last time i pulled a trailer with a car loaded on it backwards i almost lost it on the freeway when it started swaying all over the place...anyway at least you didnt have to load it up somewhere out in the boonies because of a breakdown.

Believe me it's not that I have $$, Its just the busy season with my company and dont have the time to do it. It took me a few weeks to get enought time to get the truck loaded on the traler.

Trailer Queen... j/k

I made sure they used a flatbed instead of a tow truck when my transmission went out to have it towed to a trans shop. The driver said he carries 'old' fire hoses for those who have detailed the underside so he doesn't mar it when straping it down.
