    Scuse me while I change my Kimby.

    Mine went the other way. Loading a front end loader, she lifted the rear of the little UD prime mover off the ground. Truck, trailer, tractor, me, all running down the hill out of control.

    It ended pretty much the same way. We are both still alive, and a little wiser.

    I was towing the son in laws xy falcon on a car trailer on a dirt road. Climbed a bit of a hill, went round a right hand bend in third and the whole flamin show went west behind me! The road was dry but loose pebbly surface and bugger me the 'fender never even looked like stepping out in sympathy. The old girl just pulled the lot back into line and off we went. Talk about impressed!
    Would hate it to have been wet though.

    Robert, that requires more presence of mind than I generally have.It would have made some good video footage I imagine although not for long as it was all over quite quickly.There is much to be said for transmission handbrakes in these circumstances.130man.
