All I can say is that I am glad I will not be on the road anywhere near you. You have all that weight behind you with no brakes. It could come right up your arse and jack knife you so easy it is not funny. Hope no one pulls out in front of you or makes you stop quickly. Note that most states even require the small cars behind large RVs to have a operating braking system. And those small cars are nothing weight wise behind one of those RVs compared to the M37 behind you.
If I am correct you are traveling in Washington state. If remember correctly you going fron the west to east side of the state. If so you have a mountain pass with some good grades and the grade down to the river in front of you. Those alone are scary enough with a heavey unbraked load behind you. I also believe that you are not a legal load in Washington (See above).
Rent a truck and trailer and do it right and do not endanger yourself and others. I sure that you will not want to be in the running for the Darwin award.
Yes I know that I am being hard. But you are setting yourself up.
Notice I did not hide who I am and I am more than willing to take any flack from anyone about this. You know from the past that this is a hot point with me.
