Packing crate on pickup truck?

RobertN · Apr 15, 2011

I did not think it was amusing when I got a ticket while towing my tractor. 65mph in a 65mph zone, except I was towing... got me for 10mph over...

Yes,I get passed a lot too. I'll move faster, but stick to the slow lane.

Last November I pulled a trailer from AZ. To Washington state and stopped off in LA to see the grand Kid and Family. I was being passed by atv haulers, camping trailers

for those curious - plywood box in utility trailer worked really well. And tightly packed, held an enormous amount of stuff

Glad to hear it worked for you. How are you liking the new digs?

Do not mean to Hijack post, but, I have a dumb question concerning "tow/haul" mode. If I am towing an empty 18 ft. flatbed trailer, should I use the tow/haul mode in my 07 Dodge Ram?? Thanks...

This is a great subject for a new thread. I bet you'll get a lot of responses.

I tow with my 06 ram mega cab 2500 and if I go over like 1500 lbs (about the 3/4 ton) I go to tow haul.

If you head North on I-5 you better slow down in Glenn County ( north of Sacramento, south of Redding) as the CHP are a bunch of speed trap artists. They will write for 3 miles over as they need money for their sorry County.
