I am glad you had a safe trip. Sometimes things go well and sometimes they don't. I had an occasion where things didn't go so well. I towed a Honda Accord, against the recommendations of many on this forum, without incident. On the return trip the right rear tire on my '00 Dakota blew, causing the trailer to jacknife, and we rolled 1 1/2 times, totalling the Dakota. My wife and I survived with no injuries, and I ended up buying an '03 Ram 2500 with CTD engine, followed by an identical '06 truck. I admit the Dakota was not equipped with the Prodigy system that I now have. I also have a Jacobs engine brake installed in the newer truck. Maybe too much too late, but I feel like I learned some valuable lesssons.
