At least the weight was not on the weak front suspension. The PT is just an inflated Neon!

Nothing like a good "tall tale" first thing in the morning...

Lets see...a Class I receiver, Class III/IV adapter sticking out a foot and a half and then a 12" rise on the shank...good visual

in the words of the OP...

I cant believe anybody would try to pull that off. I had to get back to work unfortunateley I did not have my camera cause you would have to see it to believe it.


I agree... and if I saw it I would have had to stop also...

anyone with a PTC that bought that line, would have only got what they deserved though...

Until someone is held accountable for their actions/statements, they will continue to 'sell' their products using any tools they have. BS is just one of them.

Two things I have seen;
1988 Chevy 454SS pickup - This was a special edition short box 2wd haul a** pickup - lots of power and torque. Towing a 28' 5ver... Turned the pick up into a low low rider, and driven by an elderly couple at about 70mph down the fwy.
Geo Metro, yes the 3cylinder ultra compact model, with a strap on hitch from U-haul, a suction cup roof rack with box, two women, a dog, towing a pop-up, with bikes strapped on... The front tires were barely touching. I saw them going out of town Friday night, down the fwy about 45mph, and then I saw them again heading back in to town on Sunday...
