When I grow up...I wanna be.......
Just blown away with what pulled in along side me in Bartlesville, OK.
Makes my F350 dually pullng a 32" Salem look like the "big dog" had pups.

We go to the odd dog show with the DW's sister and this is not uncommon to see, I think there was 6 units last year.

It looks to me that if he had to back into a site he would have to worry about crushing his little Smart Car.

I gave up on the "when I grow up I wanna be" line. After 62 years I don't think I will live long enough to grow up.

Oak.....He cut her so hard to get in along side me that I was worried about the Smart car too.....but the trailer corner missed it with plenty to spare.

When we were in Lagrange,In, having some warrantly work done a rig similar to that pulled in beside us - but it wasn't a tandem axle or carrying a car on it. It was a single rear axle Volvo just pulling a big FW. This couple were pros at it - had the walkie talkies, etc.
However i saw them in town later driving the Volvo while we were running around in our Ram pickup.

I wonder how he gets the car on and off the tractor - picks it up and spins it on the fifth wheel?

Those rigs are for "real men" only... The rest of us are just a bunch of sissies and wimps.
I was looking at ads for those things in the back of an RV mag recently. Used complete truck + trailer are surprisingly affordable. Way cool and great for the male ego, but c'mon, where ya gonna park it when you get home?

He has ramps that attach on the passenger side of the rig. I did not see it in real life but have seen some of his pictures on Facebook.

A few years ago at Lakeport State Park near Port Huron, Mi, I saw a mind blowing rig heading out of the park. It looked to be a 30+ foot class A towing a matching 26 foot TT. Why bother "camping" if that is how much space you need.
Granted, maybe they have a large family, or a sports team, or attempting the "largest number of clowns stuffed in an RV"...
