Default Large Car

My dad and I was at WalMart this morning and we came across this truck. Pretty good size bedroom. Not bad for an International.

WTF can he haul with that thing? Feathers?

The 5th wheel is back behind the rearmost drive axle and it doesn't appear he could slide it forward without the nose of the trailer colliding with the sleeper.

Good luck getting the axle weights legal with that one.:whistle:

He might have brought a load of toilet paper to WalMart, and they went shopping.

That tractors probably configured for hauling a huge 5th wheel camper.

I've seen a couple like that too. I asked what they might be able to haul with it, and I was told... "A race car". In a few instances, someone with money gets one for a motorhome.

I usually see those with a race car or show horse trailer behind them. Sometimes they have "Recreational Vehicle" stenciled on them and no DOT numbers. I didn't know you could do that, but I guess if you are not for hire you can.
