Too much!

OK. I was putting my trailer back into storage for a few weeks. I was flying solo this time and as I am moving the 2703 back into our spot I notice an older unit in a spot a few slots over. As I look over a gentleman asks if I need help. I took it and after I finished the evolution we stood talking. His "new" unit is an '87 from a seasonal site in NJ. It looked HUGE. Long story short, it weighs over 9,000lbs and he pulled it from north Jersey with his old 1500 which he admitted was rated to about 5,000lbs. The trailer had dry rotted tires and expired registration. During the trip he had a blow out on I95.......... Super nice guy but even I wouldn't try that with my grocery getter.
