Well Today saw an interesting situation, we were in the Park next to Hwy 101, heard siren, saw flashing red and blue lights, and some horn honking. Well seems an ODOT Incident Response Truck had pulled over a truck pulling a smaller 5er. When I first looked I thought maybe they had a flat drivers side rear tire on the 5er. Then I moved up closer and the 5er had no windows, no wheels or tires on the rear axle, and no license plate. It was being towed by a GM 3500 DRW. Not sure where the guy was headed, most likely the dump.

That's pretty funny!! I'm glad they stopped him, doesn't look very road-worthy

I'm guessing it was on a one way trip. ;)

My guess; maybe he bought a damaged/gutted trailer and was getting it home 3 miles down the road for a re model. Lots of guessing on this one.

The tape holding the storage compartment door in the slide has come unstuck, so the door was probably flapping around. He was stopped for an unsecured load. :):)

I found it interesting that he was stopped, not by a State Police, or county sheriff, but an ODOT Incident Response truck! These are ODOT vehicles that go to accident sieges or disabled vehicles with large sign boards to help redirect traffic, I didn't know they could pull traffic over. They do have lights and sirens to quickly get to an accident.

I passed a salvage unit being driven down the highway. The thing was seriously off-kilter.

I posted about it to Facebook and was all like, "OMG y'all, look at this!" When my wife's friend said that they bought a trailer in worse condition, towed it from Tennessee to Pennsylvania and completely rebuilt it (including rebuilding slides). They enjoy the work and it made a great camper for not a lot of money.

Is that unit for sale? Nice!

Nice way to buy yourself a headache in a remodel.
