@davidwyby. I gave you a load of grief about it, as did
@Marc-Antoine, which you handily rebutted
.
No, just no. Never do that. It can be an heavy rated trailer, but just look at what happens at the trailer hitch. You see the jolt ? it even shakes the truck. Can you imagine the forces at play here?
I’ll defer to y’all on the finer points of tree work, but truck and trailer use and repair is where I make my living. Been doing it my whole life. Do you know what a pintle hitch is or what it’s rated for? That trailer has bounced through the desert and down unimproved roads with big diesel pickup trucks and suburbans on it, that tree is nothing.
