I hate to be an old fuddy duddy but pulling that kind of weight does anyone worry about stopping? I'd sure worry about it if you were behind me and I had to stop real quick. It seems like the only time people pull out in front of me or cut me off then slam on the brakes is when I'm towing something--they think I can stop on a dime.
