    My back trailer is wiggling. Is that heavy or light back trailer? Oh. How do you weigh trailers at UPS? Feeder not freight.

    That's why they are called wriggle wagons.

    Now you have been to wriggle school.

    Keep a eye on them on ice. he he. He will either be really good by spring or develop a complex and turn into a mental patient raving about why trailers don't stay in line.
