[QUOTE="Dracula, post: 1433313, member: 42691"] I fail to see how this is worth the potential risk of damaging the equipment and being charged with an accident. Here is a better solution: drop the rear box, stop the tractor, then get out and unhook the dolly. How much long does that take? Two minutes? I don't get it. Is it laziness or a burner mentality? I don't do it too often, but if I have to, I'll do the hero hook-up. It is a handy skill to know, because there are going to be times when manhandling a dolly is out of the question, like in gravel or snow. But I always make sure that dolly will get under the back trailer before I blindly back. If that means getting out, then that's what I'll do. Maybe I'm missing something here, but I don't get the advantage of doing this. [/QUOTE]
