You guys in Texas just don't realize how good you have it with no road salt. Just compare this wonderful example of a 1989 Chevy pickup driven regularly through the salt up here to the two trucks Doug posted up. They may be waaaay overloaded, but they're looking half way decent compared to this little beauty. Now, hook this one up to that fiver and watch the fun begin!


I spent twelve years living in Connecticut and two in Maryland.  Why the hell do you think I am back down here now?    :nana:

Yea, but if you look carefully, you'll see that it's at least a 3/4 ton model - built for towing. This is further evidenced by the (formerly) class III hitch for pulling the big stuff!

I'm not even sure what's going with that poor little Canyon but how close to you is that person behind you?

Looks like 2 carriage bolts that are not even tightened all the way down on that JC Witney "add a class III hitch"
- Maybe they are working their way out from the auto hydraulic brakes banging on that junk pile.

He could have at least put the safety line on the run away brakes to the bumper instead of leaving it coiled up on the top.

I'd almost hate to think what would happen if he really nailed the brakes.

Are those chains just wrapped around the (rusted all to hell) bumper and hooked back to themself?  Or are they actually hooked to the receiver?  I wonder what that was intended to be hooked up to with all of that chain.  Man, I've been pulled over because my chains didn't LOOK crossed.  Technically they were but it was a stupid design where both chains mounted to the same point on the trailer. 

Those carriage bolts are killing me.
