Jack,

80MPH??? Please do us a favor and take it easy while towing, since we just got you back we'd like to keep you around.

I have quite a few miles towing, and it only takes a second for something to go wrong in front of you, and you cannot stop or maneuver nearly as quick with a load behind you. I've had 10 wheels sliding on one occasion when traffic stopped suddenly and an 18 wheeler slid across my lane to avoid the cars in front of him, and it really raises the hair on your neck! I rarely exceed 70MPH while towing, and at a minimum double your following distance.

As far as a hitch, definitely get an equalizing hitch, and at least one sway control, I run two. Also pay attention to tongue weight, too little is worse than too much.

Be careful,
