Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

I would have expected that once the trailer was on its side it would act like a boat anchor, not push the rig to the left any more. There may be faint smoke under the pickup - I wonder if he braked hard and that's what put him sideways.

Probably was braking (unloading the rear axle) and it looks like the top left front corner dug in before the SUV started going sideways.

Just discovered this thread. Savoring the richness by only reading a few of the 300+ pages a day.

Maybe we need a federal requirement that any man driving a loaded truck must be accompanied by a wife. That would put an end to most of this nonsense! (But would make neighborhoods like this one much less fun to hang out in!) :laughing:

I think the hard bump on the threshold of the bridge did not help a bit.

It looks to me that the trailer jumped off the ball and was hanging on by the chains. Got bump off after the bridge threshold... either wrong size ball or did not latch it. :2cents:

Now that guy is in beast mode. I don't see anything wrong with that at all. Someone stamp his man card!

Should have pulled the sled forward another foot or so...

Nah, better to get a running start to drive down the hood. Studded tracks could be a problem though.

Hopefully, the sled has reverse and he can just back up to a big snowbank.

At least he did a better job than his brother.

Their dad had an even better setup back in the day.

And Cousin Vinny from Jersey really like to show off with his tow rig and trailer.

If he is from Webster then I have seen that vette. He wasn't pulling anything but I did notice the hitch on the back.

As a former Corvette owner--from C1 to C6, I understand the pain. BUT, I used to work in a garage in the 1960's and saw the hitch mounted on a 1957, which I think is the model shown. It was securely mounted and presented no mechanical problem in towing something light. I probably wouldn't do it today, but I don't think there would be any problem other than the pucker factor of the casual observer.
