Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

[hawkeye08]

I know folks that would do something like that, for example, put a large skidsteer on a lightweight car trailer, collapsing the springs until frame was on axles and tires were squashed pretty good, saying it was ok because they took it slow on back roads. The sad part was they borrowed both the trailer and skidsteer. I would not be happy if my trailer was abused like that (one of the reasons I never loan my trailer).

I saw an ad for a used trailer that showed a picture like that! No way would I buy a trailer when they show that they abuse it like that. It was a single axle 3500lb trailer (probably de-rated to 2990) and a Kubota tractor/loader on it. Not sure the model but it took up all of the 6x12 trailer with the bucket on the tongue. Trailer tires were up in the wheel wells and bulged on the bottom.

I found this picture too. I知 pretty certain it痴 not photoshopped and it痴 sadly real. Now I知 wondering why the genuineness didn稚 at least use that dually parked behind it. That trailer is definitely bent.All the Ford fans on FB that are proud of that are even worse. View attachment 612075

Honestly I don't get it. Even aside from the obvious stupidity of it, I can't even think of how they justified it. The trailer he destroyed would have cost more than the cost to hire someone to do it properly. If it was a repo man, he must have had the keys to drive it onto the trailer because I don't think a 10K winch would have dragged it on, so why not just hire someone licensed to drive the truck?

That doesn't look like an old rust-bucket trailer that he destroyed.

Just saw this on Facebook... I guess it's his backup system to actually being sure the load is contained?

It's to bad that the pickup behind him doesn't have blue lights on it.

Or just drive it himself. It would be way closer to legal than that. I’m pretty sure it’s not a repo man.
