No wonder that truck bent in the middle, 1) a very big heavy TC with about a 3' rear over hang and 2) a good sized trl (probably heavy) with an extended tongue. Talk about the 2 turning into 1 BIG LEVER prying down on the rear of the truck.
The extended tongue trailer puts a lot LESS stress on the truck chassis than the four foot long hitch extensions most people with campers use.
I'd love to hear the story on that photo! One-ton duallies are well within their comfort zone with a big camper and a big trailer. Something crazy had to have happened, especially to fold it like that!
