Re: trailering with SUV

["Susan Garlinghouse" <suendavid@worldnet.att.net>]

It seems to me it has too short a wheelbase to be stable, or possibly just
the weight is too light.  I drove a friend's SUV (sorry, don't remember
exactly what it was) about fifty miles once with one horse in it and it was
squirrelly as hell.

My opinion would be if it was your only option to evacuate horses from an
approaching wildfire, go for it.  Otherwise, no go if you value the
livestock and your own neck.

JMO,
