I couldn't tell for sure, but looking under the trailer at the drivers side wheel it looked like a single unless they were spaced well apart.

So long as you only power on one thing at a time, it's perfectly fine!

I was thinking that the red button on the right might be the launch button. (I did, however, also look up Clark Griswold this afternoon.)

I can relate to that! I remember when I was in school, they built a brand-new men's dorm with a single outlet in every room. I wonder what brilliant architect
specified that!

My DW and I both worked for a commercial printing company in the late 1980's owned by Texas Aggies. They built a two story addition with bathrooms on each floor which was very nice. Problem was that when they tied the plumbing and electric into both sets they ran it on the opposing walls instead of the shared common wall for both sets.

Aggie engineering at its finest.

Seems like a saw this same truck posted on this thread before. This is now at Mike Roess Goldhead Branch SP in Florida.

One can't be too harsh. It might be the only home they have and the only thing they can afford. I make no assumptions.Click image for larger version

I think it's safe to assume they ruined that truck.

I sympathize that some people can come upon hard times....but there’s still guidelines and rules, about what’s okay to be on the road. Should we all be able to build our own cars for use on the road just because we DIY other things?
When others become a hazard to themselves and more importantly others.....like us....it’s time to enforce some guidelines.
