Default Ouch!

Saw an example of how not to do it this morning.
About a 6-7 Year old Chevy 1500 4x4 with a Level and Wide 33" Tires. He was pulling a Deere 60G Excavator on an Equipment Trailer. Needless to say the front suspension was topped out and the rear bottomed out. Estimate roughly 26000 GCW and about 3000 Dead Weight on the Factory Hitch.

Yes, I didn't think.about to taking pics until later.
I was busy muttering to myself... I think it was something about 5x Dead Weight Limit or something like that . I have a habit of getting inattentive when talking to myself ...
