[AT] OT Tires

[Rob Wilson]

I hope you haul lawn tractors with the Dakota. There's no way you could
safely or even legally haul two tractors with a Dakota.

You don't say what brand, size, or load rating is on the tires, Dick, but I
wouldn't put anything that cheap on my 2005 Dakota and then head across
country towing two tractors.  No way!  IMHO, my safety starts where the
rubber hits the road.

JM2C.  YMMV.
