Nice work! Glad you are watching the gauges!

If you want to improve something, measure it!

My Jeep (1977 - CJ7) used to love towing light payloads. She behaved better and got better mileage (back then I didn't measure, but it was improved). The handling was the big improvement... until I towed a boat trailer that was nose heavy! CRAP!

Remember, COG should be 1" in front of trailer wheels for every foot of trailer.
