yeah, silly, ain't it. You can tow it behind a (large) transit, but not
behind a 110.
This one's wide mainly 'cos it has cunning rotating axles, so the bed can be
lowered to the ground - loading no problem, apart from the fact that the
pump for raising the bed again is manually operated... but then again, I
*could* fit a 12V one from a small electric-type tipper, if I thought it was
worth it. I could also have had one with it's original pump (which would
probably be better than the one I have on it) but it was an extra 500 quid.
Mine was 750 plus vat.
