little tiny I'd say.  It will be professionally towed on the road to its new 
location.  At some point I'll get a tow vehicle, but not for a while.

The 6 cylinder is the sports car.  
 
<<Out of curiosity.... how do you plan to dump the black tank? >>

We'll avoid using the faciliites as often as possible during the day, and no 
showers or anything likely, so the minimal use we have will get transfered 
via a hose (the former owner said it can be set up for this) to an external 
tank (which we have to get, any leads anyone?), then taken to the nearby RV 
campground in the teeny tiny truck with prior arrangement with the campground 
owner.  It's not a suitable location for any permanent arrangement.

So the photo of the guy on the bike towing his is for much smaller ones?  Or 
he was going downhill?

Thanks for responding!
