Almost cooked the gearbox and shat me dacks a few times. Was passed and seen by many a Highway Patrol but no one stopped me. So I guess that means it was legal?

I'll never do it again though. Just a good story to tell (y)
The most unsettling scenario is when the trailers leaves start to oscillate at opposing frequencies to that of your vehicles suspension. I've never been on a rodeo bull or brumby but the sensation would have to be pretty darn close!!!

At least you lived to tell the tale and are wiser for it!! We should have a thread dedicated to Tandem Bloopers. Life is so much richer and full of possibilities when behind a FALCON.
