    Still doesn’t make any #### sense though, I could get a single axle freightliner with a c11 in it and a used step deck with ramps or a pintle hitch paver trailer and actually haul some ####. For cheaper than that truck and trailer.

    I doubt a hotshot is going to spend the bucks to be limited to what that thing is good for.

    Exactly. If I’m gonna limit myself to something as a hot shot it would be vehicles.

    I don't like what I see. I wonder how bad it's going to flex, & how strong the neck actually is. And how strong the lock is too.

    You are always going to have someone overload there rig I believe this has a spot nowadays no it's not for me or most people but still nice seeing new progress that we haven't seen before
