good lord.I think my wife said it best "Moving is as close to a divorce as we've ever gotten" - LOL! This was after moving from Fla. to Va. with 3 horses, 2 dogs, 6 vehicles & all our stuff from 20 some years of marriage. Oh yeah, the kid too. No movers, 2 24' Budget rental trucks, 4 stall horse trailer, flatbed trailer & a car dolly. Took a few trips for all the vehicles.
Tell me about it Jim. BTW, that was 6 vehicles we brought up here! Got some funny looks with my '73 Dodge Charger towing the wife's '93 Mitsubishi Galant on the car dolly (-:good lord.I think my wife said it best "Moving is as close to a divorce as we've ever gotten" - LOL!

Come right down to it, my Charger is a better tow vehicle then most modern 1/2 ton trucks. 4,000 lbs., 360 V8 with digital Holley efi/headers/cam/intake etc., police/HD suspension with fr. & rear sway bars, 727 HD torqueflite with gear vendors OD=6 speeds, 8 3/4" sure grip rear with 3.73 gears, & police/HD brakes (11 3/4" fr. rotors & 11"x2 1/2" rear drums). Funny story from about two weeks ago: had my 8'x16' flatbed with 3 rolls of hay in tow. Headed up Mt. Weather (yeah, that Mt. Weather the government security installation), I went to pass a fairly new Suburban. When I got about even with his rear bumper, he starts speeding up. Not real sure what the mentality is there, people driving slower than you are but don't want to let you pass them???? I had been running about 60, when we got to 70+ I said enough.... Well, guess who made it to the top first LOL! Let me just say, first to the top didn't have a bowtie on the grill (-;seems like that should have been the other way around
