Terrible Towing pics thread

On a 14’(?) dump trailer full of decorate rock. Hate to have to depend on them there chains.


Sent from me
 
I traded a Gladiator Rubicon that was gutless while towing a trailer 1/3 the size. The camper loaded was 4500lbs., and the Gladiator squealed like a pig going uphill. Even on flats it would gear hunt as if it were doing an Easter egg hunt.

Our gladiator does great with 4500 lbs, but I think you missed where the 5th wheel was nothing but a joke :-)
 
Not towing, but I could find where to post this. I scored about 152 retaining wall blocks on Marketplace for free. The ad was up for about 5 minutes until I saw it. Considering we are working on a project that required several blocks I jumped on it. I calculated wrong the weight of the blocks and unintentionally overloaded my truck. Anyway, the truck performed quite well considering the 1,000 lbs., over rated payload, even going uphill it didn’t struggle at all. Elevations from 6,500 to 7,300. The hemi rocks.

Been there...done that, although in a 1500. ;) I never was too good at math either...
