I was at the Flying J in Toledo the beginning of this week and there was a truck there from Arizona that I just couldn't believe. I never did see who was stupid enough to be running this thing. It was a Chevy 1500 and had a flatbed bumper pull that looked like it had been built from part of an old mobile home frame. It definitely had mobile home axles. It was maybe 40 feet long and a tri-axle with all three axles clear at the rear. He had a late model Euinox on the front and a Mustang from the late 60's or early 70's on the rear. He of course had no markings on it. The trailer jack and chains were practically dragging on the ground. I don't know how he was making it down the highway at all, let alone how the police hadn't put an end to what he was doing. You would think he would at least have the sense to put the heavy vehicle on the rear where the weight would be more on the trailer axles. Hopefully he doesn't kill himself or anyone else with that setup.

It is unbelieveable what some people will run out there. The sad thing is that they probably don't even realize how dangerous they are to others with a set up like that. You have to wonder where the police are when something like that is on the road. That gets by and we get checked for a light out.
Stay safe out there.

Yeah, I see alot of bad stuff out there this was just worse. I forgot to put that the trailer wheels were out beyond the deck and the top of the tires were above the deck and he didn't have fenders or mudflaps to cover the wheels. You would think anyone would think that tires can't just stick out with nothing to try and stop stones and stuff from being kicked up.
