Backing Up A Flat Tow
Got caught tween a rock and a hard spot today. Had to back up my flat tow about 100 feet. I refused to disconnect, so, started the engine so power steering would work, then stretch strapped the steer...

Had to do a toad disconnect on the Alaskan hwy. About 80 miles from nearest tow truck help. What happened was wife had spotted a huge brown bear and wife wanted me to stop for pictures. As I pulled to the shoulder of the road the right front wheel went down to the axle because ground squirrels had burroughed it out. Driving ahead and cutting the wheels to the pavement would have made it worsen. Backing out looked like it would work because rear wheels were on good ground,but toad had to be disconnected and moved out of the way. My toad, a 2012 canyon is an easy disconnect which was great for quick job necessitated by the bear walking around the whole time a hundred and fifty feet away. Backing the class A worked very well. Moral of the story a simple toad hookup trumps bear necessities.
