Good Stop by Local FD
Class A on Mass Pike in Charlton, MA. Jeep destroyed, motorcycle took a hit, but the local FD saved the coach from major damage.
No cause given by either FD or Mass State Police.

Sure makes one think twice about theft resistant vs quick connect hitch pins.

I'm curious if he had the Jeep transmission and transfer case set properly for towing or, as stated above, if it was even ok to flat tow this Jeep.

I ALWAYS do! Plus I tie a rag on the steering wheel so I know the lock is free.
