I have an allergy to certain narcotics, masking the problem is not fixing the problem and some doctors just want to push you aside instead of helping you, all about money there too!

One summer, the rv place sold a 26’ bumper pull to an old guy. His vehicle to pull it with was a blazer, not the full size one either. He came to the shop for something and I don’t remember what, but when he left and got to the stop sign, he hit the brakes and both units were porpossing. We told him that the trailer was way too heavy for the vehicle but the salesman told him it’s ok.

Some of those people out there driving and pulling RV's have no business doing so. I see it a lot considering the draw of our area. I wish they went through the process to get a CDL especially considering and combined length beyond 40' normally requires a CDL.

There should at least be a test before you pull something that big. I see them all the time on the main arteries thru here, trucks squatting and trailers tongue low, makes for a accident waiting for a place to happen.
