None of us are on the road alone. Fellow FGRV lovers, please stop asking for approval to do selfish stuff. Please stop being so proud of the selfish stuff you've done.

Today is the day I can no longer be silent on this. This is my opinion, period.
You evidently have been reading the “ Can i tow a 25 ft Bigfoot trailer with a Geo Metro if I don’t tow in the mountains and add a transmission cooler “ posts
Many of the questions asked on this and other forums are people seeking approval for doing things that are obviously unsafe
After a while you learn to ignore the foolishness!!

Ahoy Steve D! Hope you' re enjoying your day. Yours is good advice, to ignore the foolishness. Often when the urge hits me to respond to such, I can resist. In this instance, it felt like "silence is consent". As I mentioned, that was a day I felt overwhelmingly compelled to respond, having been triggered by some statements in the original post. This after reading a different, particularly egregious post, in which no one addressed the elephant in the room". As stated, my post is opinion, based on observation, and addressed to the FGRV community as a whole. I am not alone in my strong reaction to the original premise/proposal. From time to time the objections raised will be, and should be, strong, when opinions are solicited. Take care all.

Its probably safer to put it on your tow vehicle upside down. IMO, if your tow vehicle can't handle it, the Trill is even more likely to have issues unless you make some major structural changes (like a whole new frame and support system cage).
