Location: North of Detroit, MI | That's hysterical. Gee... isn't there a device marketed that serves that purpose? That's one way to avoid the entire "will my SUV be big enough" ?? I wonder if anti-sway bars help... ha ha ha... |

Where do folks come up with these notions? Is that bull wearing his seat belt? And what state was this in? I'm from Texas and I know they like to haul livestock any way they can. HA! |
