Would've, if it wasn't my aunts car.. Still mad at her for getting it. That thing is a POS.

Me hauling a little hay this past weekend. We were putting 10 to 14 rolls on the trailer depending on the delivery quantity. This was the last load of the day...
Didnt want to go back and get the tractor separately. It just barely all fit.

Someone needs to roll those straps up! :poke:



I've tied down many trucks both ways and with a single truck I can't tell much of a difference. Its more personal preference whether you tie the truck to the trailer (no suspension travel) or the axles to the trailer (suspension can travel). I tied this one down by the frame just because at the time it was easier to hook the chain to the tow hooks rather than climb under the truck. IMO you should have a good chain a binder or strap on each corner of the truck, and as long as you have that figure out which way tieing it down works best for you.

Those's traction bars on that platinum look a little too long...

I tried to find the weight of this Bobcat, and from what I found it said it weighed about 8K, but that could have been dry weight and without bucket and tracks. Any one have an estimate of this trailer weight. I was just wondering for my own amusement.
