No problems so far. Family is riding in the trailer to monitor progress. You do what ya gotta do.

What’s the odds that they are headed to a nascar race? I’m from Alabama so I can make jokes like that.

Have to wonder if there are lights on the trailer at all, or any kind of safety chains.... Then again, sometimes it's better not to wonder.

Like I always say. It matters not whether your tow vehicle can tow it or not. What matters is whether or not you can stop it. I wouldn't want to be anywhere in front of this trailer and I would stay a long ways back if following. Wouldn't want to be a pedestrian around this trailer either.

It makes you wonder what people are thinking. Debra

I would prefer not to be in the same state with it.

So, I guess being that the car is front wheel drive, if it lifts the rear end off the ground going over dips and humps, it'll still have "traction" to plow ahead. Might get interesting on the curves, trailer might decide it wants to go straight... Does anyone else here banjo music?

On the other hand if the trailer tongue weight lifts the front end off the ground he'll have neither steering or drive traction. My first thought was that the trailer was left there by the tow vehicle for some reason with no tongue jack so the tongue is on the ground, and the little car just backed in there to get gas. But it looks like it is actually hooked up and the front of the little car is higher than the rear from the tongue weight.
