    If you air-down remember to let the tire catch up with the steering. It is easy to oversteer because of tire delay causing the tires to push berms.

    Lashing down your cargo is a great tip as well. Hard to BBQ those sausages when your grill is 3 miles back buried in the dunes.

    Thanks for the time it took to write that up.

    That hitch I posted is rated to 10,000 lbs. I may just go with this one http://www.amazon.com/Smittybilt-29312B-Receiver-Shackle-Receivers/dp/B001CF1A7O, as it looks a bit more substantial.
