Thanks for your advice on this upcoming haul. The 1996 Chev is in very good condition, with a 350 and a 7,500 pound towing capacity. I will be using a tandem axle trailer with electric brakes on both axles. I'll be making the trip from Calgary to Regina and back on the weekend of December 15th (weather permitting) so no worries about the transmission over-heating, and it's fairly flat terrain for the whole trip. I've read the article on hauling and it was very helpful. I won't be pressed for time to get home so I won't be doing more than 60 on the return trip. The 1951 is a one-owner truck that has been in a farming family from day one, when I get her home I can post a couple of pictures.
