<< The good thing (IMHO) about the 55 max is that it applies to 
large  tractor/trailers which means they won't (legallly) be whipping 
past on the highways. >>

Norma,

If you think semis don't go over 55mph in Texas I have abridge I want to 
sell you. 

<I've noticed many references to semis blasting past rv trailers and 
sending them out of control. (unless, of course, they're being towed by 
a large long wheelbase truck using a Hensley hitch)  <grin> 
<tongue-in-cheek>  >>

I'm not sure why that was tongue in cheek..... I guess you've never had 
a semi blow by you at 80mph and felt the fishtailing sway that sometimes 
happens with trailers....... the first time you do you won't think long 
wheelbases and Hensley hitches are so funny...... Pullrite hitches also 
eliminate the worry.

Hunter, who doesn't like leaving it to chance
