I posted this before, but it fits this thread. He put a boat trailer and something else on top of the digger also.

On the subject of the multiple flat towing-  I know that towing an automatic trans vehicle in neutral destroys the transmission so whenever they get where their going those vehicles are not going to run and the one in the front the trans will probably be 90% cooked due to the overload.

I hate to admit I hauled an Allis Chalmers field cultivator home from an auction like that.  You won't believe how far one of those will fling a mailbox when you accidentally hook it!  I can tell you it passed the truck and kept on going. I felt bad about that but that was no place to stop.

My aunt had 2 of those, I didn’t realize any had survived, haven’t seem one in over 10 years.

Buddy had an Astro minivan in high school. Girl pulled out in front of him and he Tboned her at about 40 mph. Rolled her car up on its side and totalled it. Broke the grill and scuffed the Astros bumper.  Ironically, Less than 6 months later hit a deer, destroyed the whole front end, took a lot of straightening to make it run again.

How does it pass registration inspection

Read the notes.

You need to go to Korea and see how they load (or I should say overload) their motorcycles and anything that has a bed.  Lots of leaning to one side.

I really like this customer, but yes, they don’t leave the house anymore, have a lady who brings groceries etc, just Dr appointments etc.

There is some truth to that Alan

One of the things you accept to live here where the people ain't, the ambulance is a minimum an hour away. 

But we let the patient ride in the cab............................unless maybe it was a dirty drawers accident🤢     😄

Reminds me of my parents, dad lacks diplomacy sometimes, years back he had been expanding the lawn, we have no native soil where I grew up, his process for creating soil is to keep removing large stones until they are all small enough to rake, then apply seed liberally to the small stones, his lawn is less lawn and more Chia Pet . 
anyway he has a dump body on the Power Wagon, with high side boards intended for firewood 4-5’ high, it will take 1.25 cord stacked.
He suggested to my mother one day before leaving for a multi day overnight job that, as she had plenty of time on her hands it wouldn’t hurt her and be good exercise to pick some stone and put it in the truck (my mom doesn’t need exercise). He must have been a true gentleman and really won her over, because when he got back the next day the truck was filled level with the top of the side boards with the biggest rocks mom could lift on down to pebbles, said he had to unload half of it before he dared try to move it, but he dared not object 😂
