This is interesting....

Now I've never towed a boat before, and I don't want to be that "weight police guy", and I'm not exactly sure what's going on here....but that looks like a whole lot of boat, and not a whole lot of truck?

    I'd rather be behind him than in front of him, especially if traffic suddenly slowed up.
  • It's covered by a tarp, how do you know it's a boat?
    The jeep probably has the 5.9 V8, towing is no problem with that engine.
  • I don't even want to think about that boat chasing him down a grade.:E:E
  • Wrong vehicle for the load and the wrong trailer for the tub sitting on it. Look close...the trailers bunks don't come close to reaching the boats transom.

    A look around the rig may find a florescent orange OOS tag from dot on the drivers side windshield.
  • The boat and trailer are not sized properly and the truck can't handle the tongue weight. Wow.
