Scott, I will be out Saturday with your rocket.

cool
I’ve towed enough trailers to know… tongue weight is generally 1/3 of total load – our case more like 1/5 or 1/6. You need a beefy vehicle and expect to get crappy gas mileage.

V8 DODGE VAN I already get crapy milage, I wont notice the difference.
Scott,
Thanks again for towing the trailer! With the weather and your L2, you sure had a lot to deal with.
We are Good to Go with our scheduled and approved launch on Saturday April 5th and Sunday April 6th, from the North Site, subject to change – Mostly cloudy and High Winds predicted. Range and waiver should be active by 9AM on Saturday. The Pawnee National Grassland remains fragile and dry, so extra precautions are in order. Please stay on the authorized roads and please don’t park more than 100’ off the road at the flight line.
