Long trip with 95 year old lady
My '89 Prowler is on my sister's Calf. farm, while I'm in Minnesota with our 95-year-old mom. Think it's safe to take both mom and trailer across country behind a 1-ton van? I haven't towed this 31...

Bull Rider - I like your post and pic...though pics of JD and his friends can quickly get this thread off topic.
Back to the OP - nobody but you know how well a 95 year-young lady will travel -- what does she say? As for as the TT - 15 years in one spot may have many issues -- tires, brakes, and bearings may be just the beginning. Was it covered? How much UV damage to the roof? Water leaks? When was the last time the roof was sealed -- I hope sometime within the last year (or two).
These are all things to consider in regard to a trailer that is pushing the better part of 25 years old. The cost of getting it back to a point where it can be pulled, plus the cost of fuel, may not be worth what the TT's value may be -- unless it is sentimental (and belongs to the 95 year-young lady). Then all bets are off and you BEST go get it! :)
