That is almost as insane as the Honda from Home Depot loaded with cement and plywood where the shocks came through the body.

Been there done that :P But now I can do it properly, lol. That was before they rented out the duallies for $25. Whoever thought of that idea for Home Despot should have gotten a HUGE bonus.

All I can say is - WHERE ARE THE POLICE ???? I can't imagine ANY police officer letting this manifestly UNSAFE rig on ANY public road.

Stuff like this really gets my goat, theis person is looking to kill someone with this rig. It may be a free country - but you still don't have the right to kill someone, and stupid is not a acceptable defense!

Arrghhhh !!! Personally, it I saw any of this on the road, I would immediatly call 911 and get it handled pronto. David

I think I am a member of that club as well. I would feel pretty bad if I saw that go by and did nothing only to drive past it later and seeing it involved in a collision or something.

I really dont even know what to say, other than what has already been said. This is justification for the argument of sterilization of stupid people. People like this should not be allowed to procreate.

Hehehehehe, I don't have a picture, but once I was helping a co-worker (and neighboor) to move, and we filled up my Pinto SW almost halfway(!!!) with bricks, plus her two dogs.

It was all little traveled county roads (5 - 20+ acre properties), but that was the strangest handling in a car I ever had.
