LMAO at the straps to secure.

12,500 lbs? How much does that truck weigh?

I'm positive the white truck is more than 4,000 lb without the trailer, I'm just assuming that they have the 4K towing package on the Maverick.

I would have towed the Mav with the white truck! Your reason to tow well above the specs was your risk! Hope you did not damage the Mav

That's clearly not a 12k load. Truck is probably in the 3k range and flat bed trailers are what, 1,000? I'd be more concerned about how that Chevy was lashed down.

I will never understand people who strap down a vehicle over the body. They need their asses kicked! Seen lots of nice cars get destroyed this way.

Mavericks are 3,700# or more and you think that 3/4 ton full size long bed Chevy truck weighs less? That's 5,500# MINIMUM. At least 1,500# for the 10,000 GVW trailer it's riding on. (6 lug trailer axles are rated at 5,200# each) So 7,000# truck Plus Maverick at 3,700+ and driver and it is quickly 11,000 total. If that truck has a diesel or tools in it, it gets to 12,000# very easy.

I was by no means justifying the tow, in fact, the opposite. My 3,000k figure for the truck was merely a guess and a bad one at that.
