Title: educational day!
Post by: bloomer on August 01, 2014, 07:25:15 pm

Towed a large horse box 250 miles today to do a friend a favour (these youngsters who don't have towing licenses)

I tow my 8x4 cage trailer a lot but the horsebox was a whole new game! Killed my fuel consumption!

I survived as did the trailer and the wee pony we collected :-)

I'm sure I'll tow it again lots less daunting now :-)

We put a winde deflector on our trailer to try and improve fuel consumption. It does help a bit.
