    28-30 cars on the Bottom one, would be a fair old payload..

    Given the location (china or korea maybe based on the billboard), I doubt it is photo shopped.

    Probably is overloaded, trailer can probably barely hold the weight, the cab will probably struggle pulling it. But overloaded vehicles seem to be pretty common in asia, india, and africa. Just do a google search for "overloaded truck" and look at the pictures.

    Also, given the location, there's a good chance the vehicles are on the smaller and lighter side.

    No that is what you call a parking lot, hope he doesn't crash, could be a 30 car pileup with one truck!

    I guess my question would be, how would you "strap" the inside tires, after you pull the "neighboring" car on, or if it's China, maybe it's a one wheel strap per car deal?

    Yeah, those photo's have been floating the net for quite a few years .... worse, there are more like them, all real. But it's always fun to see them again, so thanks for posting.

    I have an old picture on an old hard drive of 'bunked' Chinese Army bob tails being transported. The power unit was pulling 12 ... yes 12 !!! .... bunked bob tails !!! It was totally ridiculous !! All those bob tails and with pots that were likely caged brakes ..... hope there was no stopping involved in that trip ....... !
