Cool Tow Rig

[JR2]

I saw this truck this past summer and thought you guys here in the towing section might like to see it. The fiver it was pulling was a huge with triple axles. I would guess it was 36 to 38 ft long. He had some ramps that let the sami down onto the ground with a winch that was on the headache rack. Really cool setup.

that is pretty slick!

I just wonder how top heavy it is?

The Sami only run about 2200LBS in weight,drove one for 10 years just out of highschool. One wind gust on the highway and you drop from 60MPH to 40MPH----i think stock it only had 64 HP. Great little run-about 4x4 for hunting,put many deer in the back with the legs sticking out the back window. :-laf:-laf:-laf---Chicks use to dig it too going to the lake with the top off(the sami top off,not the girls)---thats another story(s)

That is wild! That looks like an old 38' or 40' Carriage Commander.



I wonder how it pulls with the pin all the way to the rear like that? Probably more like a travel trailer than a 5th wheel. But then again... . That tractor and "Sami" weigh a bunch more than the camper. Interesting...



I have seen some guys with big NPR's running flat beds with a car or truck on the flat bed and a heavy fifth wheel attached to the rear of the bed. But nothing like that.

"give me 40 acres... "

That's one helluva wheelbase.

With a sleeper that big, who needs a 5th wheel?
