Not such a good recovery for someone

No common sense

So many people out there have never hauled anything substantial before and think
if it fits in the back of their pickup or trailer that "all is well".

They simply have no common sense to draw from.

To quote a famous comedian: "You can't fix stupid"....

I ran my MEP004 across the scales at work a while back, 6300LBS. I can only imagine the pucker factor of towing with that setup. LOL

Meanwhile down at the station...
"Hey, Joe, remember that generator we need to pick up the Army post? Why don't you take the Ridgline and that old U-haul and go pick it up."
"Hey, uh, gee, Bob, don't you think I should use one of the brush trucks??"
"Nnnnaaaawww! You'll be fine. Besides, they're give those old trucks a wax job today."


You'd think a Fire Dept. would have something a little more substantial in their motorpool to drag the likes of that generator.
