    if its completely full to the tippy top it drives like any other loaded trailer. If it has room to move little bit , you need to try to be as smooth as you can. you ll have to feel it and time the shifts so it doesn't slow you down especially when going up steep hills. getting shook up when it surges is no fun

    Take your time on ramps. Will tip in a a heartbeat, wet roads are very hazardous wehn stopping because it will hit the front. Don't dump any at the Dennys at J, they ahve enough in their eggs now.
