I'm with Bill. Much of the time setting up and taking down has to do with hitching up, leveling, chocking the wheels, i.e. stuff you're going to have to do anyway if you move it while setup. So maybe you'll save 10-15 minutes, if you are normally slow setting up. And the original posted isn't even going to save that much time because he's doesn't have all kinds of stuff setup inside -- he just unloaded and dumped, and simply wants to go back to his barn. (sidebar: I wish I had a barn.) It's going to take you at least an extra 5-10 minutes to get to where you are going because you are going to have to be watching for stuff going wrong everywhere. As as Bill mentioned, you're going to risk damaging the TM and TV at the same time, which undoubtedly will take more than 10 minutes to fix, even if you don't fix it yourself. camp2canoe has already experienced real damage doing this practice....damage that I presume he wouldn't have traded for the time he saved.

Kinda reminds me of people driving to the gym......
