Why did that loader operator place the trunk so far forward of CG ????? :shock:
I could only think of one thing: The pickup driver WANTED ANOTHER BUCK OF THE TREE
ON THE BACK OF THE TRAILER :fear:

On the far right next to the man at the end of the trailer is a pony motor built into the trailer so they don't have to piggyback another tractor on it and pay another driver to operate it. Is that a run on sentence? toothy Note the large fuel tanks and strait pipes on the front. That motor ain't no pony. I drive an '03 International 8300 Delavan 11 unit high rail car carrier. Talk about loud, every bump sounds like taking a bucket load of scrap metal and dumping it right next to you when you are hungover. It has a small cummins with a 10 speed. I get passed by EVERYBODY. Even a Swift truck is a large car to me. :oops: As for being overweight, seven Mercedes GL's makes me 82,300 compared to 10 Saab 9/3s are only 77,500.

I saw a similar situation yesterday on I78. Small pickup truck overloaded with sand; the back bumper was nearly on the road. Wished I had a camera.

Wouldn't you love to see how the trip went, reckon he ended up doin' some off roadin' somewhere Check the 'hills' in the background.
She's hitched up and ! ready t o roll!! Amazin' how the extra weight smoothes out the ride.Needed to air up the rear tires a bit ('bout 160 psi).
The attachment 1.jpg is no longer available
Added some heavy-duty chain for extra support on the tailgate, (note the 'Heavy-Duty 'S' hooks to attach the chain) Also paid-up for some BIG 5/16 sheet metal screws to attach the frame to the tailgate.
Yep, prob ably overkill, but didn't want the possibi lity of having an axerdent!
The attachment 2.jpg is no longer available
Most of the time was spent on the front porch whittling down that MASSIVE 4x4 to fit precisely into the ball mount receiver.
Note: The 14'x14' piece of 3/8' plywood on the underside of the tailgate to distribute the load more evenly.
'YOU CAN'T BE TOO SAFE, Y'ALL !!'. B'gosh it costs a little more, but jeez, you just can't be too safe.
The attachment 3.jpg is no longer available
Just noticed the license plate in the third photo :oops: .It's sad, idiots like this seem to be everywhere :roll: .

Edit: Added photo...It is a Utah plate.

I wish I had taken pics of my tires when I had 5K lbs. in an enclosed trailer with a 1300lb GVWR! :lol: Single axle, torsion spring! :D

I had 80 psi in each tire & they looked flat -- went down the road like a basketball! :lol:
