your front brakes do like 70% of the braking.....with it up like that..... he'd have stuff all brakes....the steering would be so dodgy, it'd sway like a mofo as well .... a few hundred spend on the suspension / towing setup would perminantly fix it it would be so tiring to drive it for any kind of distance cos driving like that really takes it out of you... |

Doesnt that screw the frame of your car? I always thought it would bend that hunk-o-metal that the whole car is built on.

What better way to spend your retirement years than hurtling across the Australian countryside in a death trap?

It prob just an elderly couple that don't know better who have had the car from brand new and always towed their caravan
BUT previously they had a smaller caravan and in retirement bought a new bigger caravan Prob one of those people that everyone has a cry about that drives 60km in an 80klm zone as they have forgotten how to overtake slower cars and just sit behind them
