Wish me luck guys, I am using the B2 to pull the trailer for work today..............It still has some "reliability issues" in my mind.

I may still be firing up the Ranger or F-250 to tow it home.

I used to pull a 15ft boat with my old B2..........No, problem and backing up is a breeze. My utility trailer weighs less than the boat, but emergency braking at highway speed could be a real thrill seeker experience with anything heavier than say, 1,500-2,000 lbs in tow.

Hey Guys, thanks for the suggestions. I think I'll make a family project out of this, and maybe let the kids vote on the solution... Of course, I can veto any vote, declare marshal law and implement whatever solution I want.

Hmmm, I think that one might be signature worthy!

What time will the private jet pick me up? Closest airport is Sioux City, but he might be able to land on I-29, it's pretty straight and flat.

Make sure the private jet you send for me has pontoons. Then she can land on Lake Tahoe!

I don't like water landings, so they can pick Bruce up first, and stop for me as they head east.
