Re: What not to do with your Ford!!

That's great. Reminds me of trying to load a bobcat on a trailer... without the truck. Oh, and to make things more fun, a 3" jump from ground to ramp. It took me 10 minutes of chasing that trailer all over creation with the bobcat, but I did get it loaded. That was the last time they (rental company) insisted that we reload something without the truck that they unloaded with a truck. No, I didn't break or bend anything. The boss reamed them a new one when they came to pick it up. Picture it in your mind... Bobcat pulling wheelies to get the front tires on the trailer, without hitting the end of the trailer on the underside of the bobcat(which send the trailer rolling). Then running forward onto the trailer so it doesn't fly out from underneath, but no so fast as to overshoot the front end. Oh, and by the way, try to get it to stop really close to the axle so it doesn't slam down on the jack. On a nice smooth wood deck.
Oh, what fun!
