    I've never pulled a dry van, but don't they strap heavy items down inside of them.

    You're supposed to secure your load but sometimes you can't.

    When I was cowboying there was more than once that I was called in the middle of the night to go meet police and "dispatch" a cow that had been hit... I've seen exactly what they will do to a car or pickup.

    I almost hit 2 buffalo on US26 east of Jackson, WY in Grand Teton Park winter before last, road was slick as #### and I almost wasnt able to stop... I sat there for 5 mins or so as nearly 100 head ran across the road. Saw whole heards like that several times.
