What I was told today by two dealers is that due to more and more light trucks pulling 30 ft camper trailers weighing 5 or 6 tons and getting into accidents because they can't brake fast enough, cops are looking more critically at what we're towing. Now I'm pulling about 2 tons of hay on a 15 ft homemade box trailer with a single mobile home axle. I'm overweight every time because it's single axle, regardless of the axle load rating. Strong, ugly, but if they ever got me on the scale... I got pulled over once and I thought I was done for, but the city slicker cop thought my bales weren't secured well enough. I happily put another length of rope across it and off I went, sweating like crazy.
