Did they not try to set the tires in?

Here's one. Trailer is just cruising along, no problem.

Here is one for you guys. 12 round bales squeezed onto a trailer without one strap. It also looks like the truck is squatted down more than it should. I got stuck behind this guy for about a 1/4 mile as they were creeping along at about 15 mph.

Didn't look like it. I know the truck he was a local. And I don't think he was going far but still.

Around here, that would have another row in the middle on the top (5-6 more bales)... The trailer has at least 20,000# worth of axles under it, so as long as the truck is up to it, the only problem is the lack of straps.

Yep. Have a buddy with a trailer the same length. He hauls 17. Just on the farm no straps. Going down the road just one down the middle.

Aaron, Yeah I've seen them stacked two ore even three rows high too, but they usually strap those down. I'm with you, the trailer is fine but that poor Chevy sure was struggling. I can't tell what those bails weigh but I'm guessing he is exceeded the toe capacity of that 1/2 ton truck.

I don't think that is a 1500. that is a gooseneck or fifth wheel trailer with a upper deck. Most likely 2500 or 3500 single rear wheel.

I'm pretty sure it is a 2500.
