Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

Tongue weight is fine. Combined truck and trailer capacities are fine. Nobody is going to point out the invisible chains holding everything in place?

I always chain everything down thoroughly when moving it across the lawn, so I am sure that he did also.

Well it didn’t get a textbook 4 point chain job on the tractor plus 2 more on the loader and bush hog plus another one for each loose implement plus another one for the ramps but I did put a chain across each end. I needed to load a pallet of block on the truck the other day and the trailer was hooked up and I didn’t want to unhook it. So I sat the pallet of block on the front of the trailer and then drove the skid steer up the trailer and picked up the block, drove forward and set them on the truck. That was a pretty front heavy load.

There was a bit of sarcasm there. The trailer would haul 4 times that much.

Thank God. Although, if you were serious, I was glad to see someone err on the side of massive overkill! Truck on.

I assumed the picture was taken before chaining or after removing them.

Considering the trailer outweighs the load I’d say massive overkill is a true statement. I’d rather move a little tractor with a big truck vs a big tractor with a little truck.

I saw that sitting in a field in an obviously not being used condition so I stopped and asked about it. The owner priced it cheap so it’s mine now. It’s nice to have around for when my 1 ton isn’t enough truck for the job.

Nice, wish something like that would fall into my lap!

It always got me that a small tractor or a large tractor on a trailer don't leave much empty space on a the trailer.
