Default Re: Honda Truck? Pulling Trailer

On this vehicle, there is no hitch, or posibility for hitch, so it has to be a bolt/clamp-on bumper type. Thin metal bumpers, too. I had one on my '78 Civic that I purchased when 14 and re-built bolt by bolt. I pulled a very, very small trailer with light collegiate-quality loads (random lamps, pillows, bikes, etc). By the looks of the angle on that "trailer", he is employing a similar clamp-on thing.

Personally, I wouln't have gotten much closer to get a better picture. Looks just a little over the rated tow capacity of ZERO!!!

Surprised he doesn't have ANOTHER trailer mounted to the ball on the Volkswagen bed. Perhaps he figured that'd be too low and didn't want to drag the safety chains...
