This vehicle is built with careful attention to strength and stability. It is conscientiously and specifically designed to be used for actual funeral events in a way that protects its precious contents from any foreseeable or unforeseeable mishap that could occur due to such happenings as hitting a curb, bogging in soft ground, encounters with potholes or rough pavement. Cheap designs run a high risk of failure--an unwanted occurrence during an actual funeral.
