Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

Correction, apparently the white pickup was not the tow vehicle.


Some more pictures:
Looks like there was a tiller on the 3 point and they really needed to back it on.

I only tow the log splitter with the Suzuki Samurai and this is because it is the only vehicle where I can physically see it when towing...

Rig up a couple of clamps so you can add a couple of flags or driveway reflectors. Or those magnetic trailer alignment balls.

Even my 18' equipment trailer can be difficult to see the corners on when backing behind my Ram 2500. I got a set of snowplow markers to mount on the rear corners. Fixes that issue right up. Nice thing is that they are springy and bendable so when I hit them while loading/unloading something it isn't an issue.

My tow vehicle is a full size Chevrolet Van with only the front windows... it would take a lot for the splitter to be visible... even the small box trailer is well hidden...

But the Suzuki works great and zips right along down the highway.

I drove Vans with only front windows in a city environment. Wonder how I ever managed. And never mastered mirrors either. The bosses wanted to save money, but probably lost it in production, as I circled the block until I could find a place to drive straight into. One boss even saved twenty five bucks by not getting a spare tire.

When I pull the splitter I just hope it's still there when I get to my destination and nothing went wrong during the trip........also remember to not back up! I don't go far with it unless it's on another trailer.

Really need to put another backup camera on the truck since my old one died.

Those magnetic trailer alignment things are useful, but they charge you for the gimmick aspect of it. You can get the exact same functionality from a magnetic tool pick-upper, for 3-4 dollars instead of 20-30 dollars, and being telescopic it will fold up smaller and fit into a door pocket. :thumbsup:

Cheap rear camera set up is an option as well. Safer too if kids are around.

Just that it's a shame and crime that all that non replaceable old growth forest was destroyed. For what? Mostly just mindless consumerism and profit.

I agree, 100% We're a wasteful society with little respect for the future.

Look at all of the dead redwoods laying on the forest floor that will go to waste......

Those trees going to "waste" are homes to many animals, they decompose into food for the next generation of trees, etc. Nature doesn't waste anything, only man does.
