I'm sure some of you have seen this, I did a quick scan to see if it was previously posted and didn't see anything.

    Negative tongue weight. LOL Look at the rear pickup fender clearance above the rear tire.

    The hitch on the trailer is probably a bolt on to the bumper. Now that's scary!

    I am surprised that the spare tire does not hit the suburban when making tight turns.

    Its hard to see, but I think the back wheels weren't connecting all the time. I think it was an AFV potential that failed.

    If he put it in reverse you would think the fiver was pulling the Suburban.
