Obviously the owner feels safe with it. Doesn't even need the safety chains.

I count 12 points where too much stress could cause failure of the whole danged setup. This jerry-rig is only as strong as its weakest stress-point.

We've seen that pic posted here before. We are always surprised at how many unique critiques it receives.

Sometimes you must adapt the adapter to be able to adapt and overcome.

Another permanent drivers license revocation. If you put the rest of in danger.. conscientiously with that rig and "feel OK" about it you should only be allowed mass transportation/cab/Uber or something. That ain't right and phooey on the cops for not parking that rig.

Sorry. Rant over
