Hey Turbs, did your Chevy break down this weekend. I found a picture of you bringing it home with the DWs people mover.

If it did break down, do you really think he would admit it?

Can't tell from the photo, but the rear doesn't appear to be chained down and the rear tires are way too close to the end of the trailer.

Well actually Turbo is the one who first spotted it and if we don't give him what little credit he deserves then he gets gets grouchy

But the hitch in the photo looks a little strange also.

Right - what's your take on that long hitch?

If I had to say anything looks right, it would have to be the TV looks level.

That's only because they've moved the truck soooo far back on th trailer.
Which is why the hitch looks so long.
They've moved it back as far as they could or the grocery getter would be draggin a&@!

So are you saying the bed of the trailer is adjustable fore and aft on the frame?

No I'm saying that they moved the truck as far back on track he trailer as they could so that the van would not be tail dragging.
It just barely on the trailer at the rear.

I agree that might account for the TV being level, but look at the distance between the front of the bed and the hitch - that appears to be much longer than normal.

Yeah - kind of looks like the long hitch rail you see on the second dump trailer that hooks to the towing dump truck.

Might have helped some - but it was stolen like RVC thinks it might have been,then they probably didn't have time.
