Looks to me like it's stopped/pulled over, though badly and not all the way off the road. Either those tires ain't turnin' or the camera that took the pic is so fast there's no blur at the wheels....

There is absolutely no way to tell from that angle and there isn't a good view of the wheels at all.

Do you see the well known photo-phenomenon called "motion blur" in ANY part of the picture? If the trailer was moving, something would be blurred; unless as I said someone was using a rea-l-l-l-y sophisticated camera to take that picture. Truth be told, given the crispness of the shot, I'm not even convinced that the vehicle the picture was supposedly taken from was moving.

All due respect, what do you call "really sophisticated?" An SLR camera, either digital or film would do "stop motion" very easily. Usually 1/60th shutter speed will begin to "stop motion" and anything faster like 1/120th or 1/250th or faster will freeze all motion. No blur at all. Given enough light, those are very common shutter speeds and not "really sophisticated" cameras at all. Many people have them including myself, relatively inexpensive but you can spend a lot depending on how sophisticated you want to get. The expense is usually in the optics, different lenses are where the cost begin to mount up. Anyway, FWIW I just wanted to share this.

But, that is unbelievable...how fast were you going when you saw this mess?

Something to be said about "check lists."

X2 on photo shopped. That much weight hangin' over the side like that, you would think two blown tires in pretty short order........

Never seen a TT with hydraulic slides. Maybe a very high end TT, but even then i don't think so.

my hydraulic ones could be brought in with the supplied come-along thingy. just twist the bleed valve.

If its like my Sandpiper and probably is he had a hydraulic failure on his slides. Both slides on that side operate on hydraulics. Main slide opens first then rear slide opens. There is a manual way to close the slides, crank is in the front storage. I did have a valve failure and my main slide opened six inches before I noticed it, had to keep retracting slide with the remote control to keep it closed. We will truly never know the whole story.

had hydraulic on a salem i had. the valve inside the pump went bad and would only go out. even the manual did not work-just added more 'out' pressure. luckily i was in my driveway and after a little thought i reversed the lines on the ram and it did come in. found a new pump on ebay that was an exact fit for a good price. will never own anything but ele now-at least you can get them in manually if you have to-not easy/fun, but possible

wasn't it April 1 not long ago

Looks like the Griswold's upgraded!!

Shadows are all wrong


;)

Of course they left the slides out - last time the kids complained they didn't have enough room while traveling.

Conspiracy... plain and simple. I think the government was behind it.:D
