We are in the 'bigger is better' family of towers.
We like big frames, big brakes, big engines, big transmissions, big radiators.
Accordingly, our tow-vehicle is a 1997 Ford CF8000 commercial truck.
The tires are commercial semi-truck, with weight-ratings measured in multiple tons.
An advantage -- beyond the safety of a stouter vehicle -- is the 'million-mile' chassis and power-train.
For the luddites, dinosaurs, and tinkerers [ points to self ] in the audience, our Cummins 8.3 has no need for an *expensive temperamental* computer or *expensive temperamental* 'Exhaust Fluids'.
Two wires, and it goes!
