Re: Oops



No need to be. I only found out about it yesterday. It's only a rerun if you have seen it before. With the 24 hour news cycle some folks seem to think anything outside of that is "old news". To bad really, lots of things going on that need more than a day to sort themselves out.

Re: Oops

Makes me so sad. I can't imagine how they felt when that happened.

Why is no one yet overlooking the REAL issue here...

That's clearly a triple axle and a srw...

Had it been the correct tow vehicle it wouldn't have been an issue..

I thought all triple axle TH were towed with SRW trucks. Better for going off road. Triple axle trailers are very stable. ;););)

We just watched a group of 5 toy haulers come in Friday night all but one triple axles and the one not being pulled by a dually was hooked up to a semi. The fella pulling the cyclone said they were headed back to cali after a week of playing in the desert.

I have the proper tow vehicle for my 4200 and I can say for certain it still would have been a problem. The dimensions of that TH and that corner just make it nearly impossible. The thing I keep thinking is why in the heck did they head down that road to begin with?

No..if was a LIFTED DUALLY , then and only then could it have worked...see what most people don't understand is the nose high trailer gives MORE ground clearance!!

He could have made the corner if he had rear-steer... rear-steer on all back 6, that is.

Or maybe if he had flipped the axles . . . :rolleyes:

Whomever was driving that rig must have a couple of screws loose.

My question other than the dually is why did it not flip over And this is new to me too.

Every time I look at this I just have to wonder why someone would even attempt ? I just want to ask what were you thinking ? But clearly that would be a waste of time.

One of my coworkers showed me more photos and a story about this (didn't get the website, though) on his cell phone.

I'll get the website from him tomorrow.

It was somewhere in Utah and the tow bill was $3500, according to what I read.

It also said that the driver just wanted to go where nobody else was . . .
