Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

Last summer saw a SUV towing a 5x8 trailer with nothing else on the trailer but a mop and a bucket.

They dropped off whatever they were hauling and were on the way home. What do I win?

The beginning was a bit long so we'll skip ahead to the 4:00 mark.

For people who didn't watch, when the driver of the RV is told that the pickup truck behind is in park and being destroyed he just shrugs and says he is almost home. He drives off without taking it out of park.
It is hard to understand stupid, but that seems suspicious to me. Like he didn't actually have the keys for the truck.

I agree. That [towing a motorcycle] is beyond description.

Why? If he's just taking it across town to ride home after dropping off the truck or something - this seems reasonable to me.

in the last month i have moved a piano and organ ( biguns )

and while they would have easily fit into the bed of my f350 I'd have herniated something doing so... I was MUCH happier getting them on my 16' car hauler that is low tot he ground and easier to ramp something up onto.. easier to tie down..etc.

so yeah.. you've described someone here.. but small load in a trailer and an empty truck bed may mean nothing depending on application.

same with a sod pallat.

it's easier for me to unload from my trailer using my fel, then it is to unload from my truck bed... and there's plenty of room inthe bed for the sod pallat.

OH yes! I totally agree with you on the large and heavier stuff, and the ease of using our FEL,:thumbsup: what I'm talking about is the stuff you could easily put in the trunk or hatch of a car, much less the bed of a truck,

When I was a kid, I used to love to hook a trailer up to the garden tractor and pull it around for fun after cutting grass. Maybe some folks just haven't grown out of that stage yet?

you ever pulled a trailer with a zero turn if so you'll know why I built a bed on the rear of mine. Picture to come:

Ha ha...nope! I'm sure that's an adventure, especially backing up.

Up to about 4 years ago we had always had John Deere tractor style for mowing, then we bought a JD Z820-A zero turn mower. I had never driven a ZT. While finalizing price negotiations, I asked the JD dealer if a trailer hitch was available and he looked me like I had 2 heads. Now I know why.

Pix as I promised, nothing fancy although allows me to carry a few things back-n-forth, so far the heaviest load has been a stack of firewood, proly 65-75 lbs, it can be easily removed, the ZT had a square hole at the lower rear frame, so I took advantage of it and come up with this idea, it's 26" x 28" I used wire for the bottom in order to still get fresh air into the engines flywheel,
