I see the landing legs are still down. Did you pull that? How far down did the back sag?

Yes, it looks perfectly safe to me. Loads like that are pulled everyday. I'm sure that he had it registered so it was legal too. Although I'm also pretty sure it is over some of Fords recommendations.

That truck pullin it is a Ford so it must be safe!!! Now if it was a D..ge,or Ch..y the driver might risk an unsafe load but who's gonna risk a REAL truck???

It can't be too heavy. Isn't that a 1 1/2 inch strap with about a 6000 lb breaking strength that he's tying them together with?
