I can't believe what I'm reading here. People actually think a 6 1/2' tall, 6000# truck rolled a 13' tall, 10-12000# trailer because it has a possible lift kit in it? I don't know whats crazier, that or the fact that some people think a duallie would have kept it from rolling! Come to northern NY where we tow 4 and 6 place snowmobile trailers in snow and ice all winter long and 1/2 of the trucks have 6" lifts and 33's on them.
Now think about the difference in the 2 conditions. Snow and Ice which will let the tires slide on the surface or dry blacktop roadway which will have no give.
Having said that I'm not sold a dually would have made a difference
True but you usually slide till you hit a snow bank or bare ground, catch, then roll it. I stand by my statement. Trailers roll trucks. Not the other way around. Lifted or not. Now trailers with flipped axles is a whole other can of worms! Lol
absolutely agree the trailer rolled the truck however the higher center of gravity while in a turn makes the lifted truck easier to roll. No doubt he was driving too fast. I've made the drive from phoenix to Prescott hundreds of times. No question driver error was the biggest factor.
