Saw this truck and trailer while sitting at a light and thought it would be fun to see how many would do the same and how many think its not safe.
Sorry the photo is so bad but i used my phone. And for those who don't see it Im talking about the suv pulling the single axle trailer with the tractor who's fel is up in the air over suv.
Im in the not safe boat.

I'd definatly vote for a bigger trailer! Seems that could get hard on the SUV rear suspension

your phone pics are way nicer than mine...thanks for sharing

That's just plain stupid. I wonder what would happen on a longer trip when the loader slowly starts to lower. I highly doubt that trailer is rated anywhere near the tractors weight as well. :confused2:

Nice Challenger too! :thumbsup:

Yup looks pretty hokey, probably overloaded and definitely way to much weight on the tongue, that looks like the weak link in that package. Tires, axles even the suv may hold up but I could see the front of that trailer breaking.

I think the loader is supposd to be chained/strapped to be legal.

now Im not a dodge fan but your right about that one. Its owned by a local cop and he has all sorts of mods done to it from wheels to the engine. And you gota love the color.

One of my tractor's FELs slowly leaks down. If I made more than a short trip that way I would have trouble.

OK, its not THAT bad.. so hes' got the reasr suspension overloaded... And, well, hes' got the trailer hitch completely overloaded, Lets see, and MAYBE he has the bucket up in the wind with no support, oh, and, he MAY have the little trailer axle and tires SLIGHTLY overloaded. Come on guys give him a brake, he DID put the rear ramp/gate up...
