That sums it up pretty well , doesn't it? LOL Is that for real though? How can anyone think that this setup is correct , much less safe!

May have to sell my truck as to not be associated with this non-sense.

Trailer weight times 0.015 = tongue weight right?

Somebody didn't take his algebra classes

That trailer is probably over $50k...why tow it with something so woefully overtaxed is the real question.

Is it me, or does that back end of the truck look all smashed up too? I can see it now, rolling down the highway and SNAP goes the axle as the rear wheel pops off and passes them by.

I noticed that as well. I'd say this guy isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier

Nice trailer. It's too bad that it'll be wrecked when the truck snaps in half.
