Seen this one before, I think they will be all right if they just put some lead on the hood to hold the front end down

I changed my mind .... It's not safe .... no lights and no break-away switch. .... they can use only in daylight and have passenger in trailer drag their foot in case of break away.

I think it would look really sharp if he had matching whitewall tires on the TV.
What else might one need? Granite counter-tops?

To be serious here for a second, maybe two. How far do you think this jack a$$ would actually be able to tow this thing without a disastrous failure perhaps wiping wiping yours or my family along with his. I had a second look at the pics this morning for whatever reason. Something I noticed that I failed to the first time trough was the chains holding up the tailgate. One small bump in the road and those said safety chains will tear through that metal like a hot knife through butter. I'm hoping that was put together a joke/ photo op. Please tell me there are not people out there that are that stupid!! Certainly Darwin Award candidates.

I think the worse one I cited was a pickup pulling a single wide MH (12FT) wide and 40 ft or more long. No trailer lights, no mirrors, no safety chains etc.. He not have any one following to help with traffic. I had to get along the truck to get driver to see the police vehicle attempting to stop him. As normal I was a bad guy, he was just helping his friend move his home.

My guy had been on a 2 lane highway, was stopped on a 2 lane city street and headed for the 6 lane interstate. I think I counted 12 violations that were all saftey issuses so he got a careless driving cite which means "likely to cause damage to persons or property" by what he was doing. I placed a copy of the photo on the work site LOL board.
