Sadly, this tends to be ignored until something happens. :|

All sorts of things can go wrong. Catigail had his trailer’s tongue snap off on one of his trips, and he is a very astute individual.


As we all know, there is much to check, and sometimes we just forget to check off all of the boxes, or just make bad decisions; we’ve all been there one way or another. learning a lesson the hard way. You hope you survive to live another day and tell about it. Been there, done that.
