If you can zoom in enough the yellow line is a trailer. Theres a curb under it and the trailer (yellow line) is on a slow down hill angle

I can see it now. I was zooming in on my computer but when I looked on my phone I could see it.

Here is one I saw Friday. It is a BX with a loader on a single axle trailer. The tires were under inflated and the tractor was "secured" with a rope going across the floorboard. There were also bags of something possibly sand or rocks, on the front of the trailer. It was very tongue heavy. The trailer axle was bowing pretty good.

Sometimes misspellings are the autocorrect function the computer comes with. It changes there to their and that kind of thing. In fact, it changed my word "thing" I just typed to "think" and I had to manually correct it.

Very frustration --and there's an example since I wrote very frustrating and the machine changed it to frustration. Not a lot of us proofread diligently since we have more important things to do and this stuff isn't exactly going into the Smithsonian.

I sent a text to a lady at work who sent me to pick up supplies. I wasn't sure how many she told me so I sent her a text trying to ask her "Do you need six?". Well I must have typed something wrong because the last word ending up having an "e" in the middle.

What's the weight of BX with a loader? I would guess under 2700lbs, the trailer prob has a 3500lb axle in it, trailer prob weighs 600-900lbs, it would be very close to capacity on the trailer.

The rope is a bold move lol, ratchet straps aren't that expensive lol.

A friend of mine sent me this picture, it was local. Self explanatory I think!

Still laughing at that one, I still think that's a woman right there, maybe the guy is off camera.

My caption on that one would be, calling the GF or wife and asking her to load the tractor up and bring it over for you, and that happens.

I think the tractor is a lot lighter, but looking at the trailer tires, I would give even money on it being an 2000 lb axle.

And her reply was.....?

It seems you leaving off the best part of the story.

Agreed. And look at the caster! That trailer is bowed! Whatever the weight, it's more than that trailer should have.

A BX is about 1300 to 1600 pounds, plus implement weight.
