Over length? Over weight?
Found this over on another site.

I hope he wasn't (and won't) going west over the Rockies.....? It doesn't appear that he added airbags on the truck, but I hope he hopped up the tranny to something like a Phase IV with an Edge chip with all of the gauges....? Still, THAT looks like trouble!!

This unit is a toy hauler to boot.
"Wonder" what's in the garage?

I was thinking the same thing Ron! Given that it is a triple axel that is probably a 16-18K TH + that PT Cruiser on the Dolly is another 3-4K? Towing with a SRW *without* bags?
Even with brakes on both the TH and Dolly, I would NOT want to be in front of him going down a 6% grade

That truck is a megacab DRW. Even so I question stability more than braking...

If memory serves, the max payload on those trucks is over 6000 lbs and max tow is over 30,000.

ccc.....that IS the question that I'm curious about, too! I think he's pushing it...uhmm, I mean pulling it way over the max. CCC....I can't see how he's really legal with that weight, let alone the length!

Brings to mind an old saying:
