Last week I put a bedside on an 09 Chevy 1/2 ton because the owner jacknifed his trailer full of ATV's when it got away from him backing up. This guy hauls new Caterpillar equipment for a living on both Lowboy, and dropdeck, but freak accidents can humble us at any time.

RobHi rob,we were having a picnic at a lake near us a few summers ago,it was something to see! people trying to back these small 1-2 axle trailers with boats and personal watercraft down the ranp and into the water! after struggling for about 45 mins.to get turned around,one couple actually un-hooked their large boat and turned it around in the parking lot so as not to back up! i don't know much about boats. but i bet this was a 12-1400 lb. boat.almost every vehicle i looked at had a bent-up bumper or some type damage.........mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

Double L Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 I prefer the fender mirrors myself. It'll save your butt from running over the car you can't see that is by your fender but that is my opinion.
