    Now here is one way someone tows his 310GK. Definitely doesn’t need to upgrade his disc b4akes or axles. HA!
    His TV definitely needs a few upgrades. Just saying coming from this big dummy.

    Wow the crazy stuff people do!! I'll bet 90% of the Solitude weight is on the pin, the entire trailer is forward of the trailer axles! I wouldn't want him behind me coming down a mountain road.

    I'm thinking it may be set up for some kind of stunt?
    Pretty sure that requires a tad more truck to safely pull?

    Not sure what exact truck is pulling it, but I would think the entire thing may weigh around 20-22K lbs. A 310GK has a GVW of 15k, an FJ cruiser is under 5k for sure, and then the trailer.

    The newer dually ratings get over 30k towing capacity now.

    The set up isn't a stunt and is real but he doesn't tow it with that truck !!

    Well one can see the clearance between the truck bed and 5ver to gestimate the overall height.

    Yeah, that's an early picture. He actually has beautiful black semi to pull it and has done a lot to the whole rig since this photo. He's been on the FB page for a few years and documented the whole build.
