Howard: I will not dispute what your saying, as what I am about to tell is slightly different.

I was coming out a side road when what did I see go past but a Chrysler mini van pulling a car dolly with the front wheels of a MH 33 standard straped to the dolly and rear tires running on the road. I estimated he was making 40 to 50 mph. I pulled on road behind him and following, sure enough he was making 50 mph. I followed some 25 miles expecting at any minute to see the bull gears of that old MH launched in space.

After 25 miles he turned onto the 4 lane, thankfully I wasn't going that way. I mentioned this to a friend and they knew exactly who he was and did confirm he went with traffic at 65 mph on the 4 lane for 30 miles to the town where he was a preacher. I had gone to school with this guy and we all knew he was nuts. Even after what I saw, I still wouldn't recomend it, especially with a mini van. Dump truck loaded with about 5 ton maybe. I guess he probably had the lord travelling with him, but alas Poorboy the lord can probably take more chances than you. Take heed with what Howard is telling you. Failure to do so, may make you a whole lot poorer.
