Re: [A/S] Canadian Towing
We are all crazy north of Buffalo you know. It's a condition brought on
proximity anxiety. Our big brother to the south can be awfully
intimidating, as nice as the average Yank is. I really appreciate your
concern for our toque (aka stocking cap) covered heads.
Can Am RV has been in business forever and their owner puts his
expertise and savvy on the line every day both at the shop and in print.
He definitely is a student and practitioner of the science and
engineering of hookups. I'm not. He did the Reese hitch hook up of my
30' International to my 89 Crown Vic. I believe it was done with all due
consideration for safety and I feel confident when I use it within
responsible parameters. These do not include bolting down the 401 at 80
miles an hour or sailing down mountains without regard to approach speed.
There are all sorts of examples of hookups that are done to "under
powered or undersized vehicles" and history has demonstrated that it can
safely be done if done correctly.
I still haven't been able to get a hitch that will let me pull the
International with the Jetta, and even Andy at CanAm just chuckles when
I bring the topic up. Now that brings up the Schwinn question.........
