Never apologize for Meatball. I love that you have a dog named Meatball and his favorite toy is a ball that looks lik a giant meatball.
Meatball is part of the stars in this show! Love that dog :)
Take a lesson from Tuber "Lord Muck", never apologize to us viewers. It's your way of doing things and by us watching and you doing we both learn. Great stories. Narragansett Bay.
Never apologize for a dog! Even though I enjoy your content, animals always make a video better!
I'd watch a 24hr Meatball cable channel.
You all prolly dont care at all but does anybody know a method to log back into an instagram account??
I stupidly forgot my account password. I love any tips you can give me.
@Matthias Damon instablaster =)
Meatball is the perfect name for Meatball!
needs spaghetti
@hawkturkey He has a cat. Pay attention.
@hawkturkey meow? or a the bobcat could be called spaghetti?
Meatball is easy to please.😍 Please don't smash my meatball!
" I am The Mighty Meatball. Fear me, you evil orange ball of bounce"
I'm with you on the pintle setup. The military has used the same hitch setup for decades with zero problems.
Friend finder... YUP LMAO. It sure is!
Thanks again Matt!
Would be great to see a video of you fixing the trailer up more. Paint, grease, checking brake, fixing hitch position, power wash, etc... love the channel.
Haha meatball piled up jumping that ditch in the intro.
Today I Learned: Beaver Tail = fixed ramp. Also: Corn Pro is STILL a funny name for a product or brand.
That’s an active Bulldog!
He is super hyper! We thought we bought a lazy lump... farthest thing from it
A extra inch is everything to a man !! You never know when you might need it.
old faithful that’s what she said!
love that dog the way she chases that ball
You could make a 30 minute video of you playing with Meatball and I would watch 👍
I keep telling the wife the dogs need their own channel
Haha that’s awesome
You do a lot of things , Matt! I don"t even have 1/10 of your skills! Ha ha ha....
I love the way Pennsylvania does trailer registration. New York is quite different. You did well with the puschase
Congrats on the new to you trailer, your bully is hilarious!
Oh my God I wished I had the energy that bulldog has I guess his name is meatball what a cool dog I've never seen a bulldog with that much energy but whatever he's doing he's doing it right! Looks like a pretty nice trailer for sure oh, and doesn't need much work. That is great! Please stay safe stay well and as always God bless
What amazes me is the tensile strength of bolts. Just 4 is all that is needed on those tongues.
Watching your doggie chase his ball with breakneck enthusiasm is very satisfying! What a great dog! Nice trailer too!
I agree with the pintle hitch thing also, ive grown to love pintle hitch setups.
Your pup is hilarious. Sooooo cute!
I'm with you on the removal of that ball hitch. Very nice trailer and a great price.
sweet trailer.
Love how you take the time to give your pets some attention.
Ahh yes the old hip bump trailer lineup I've done it a million times
Love meatball just goofing around while you are fixing the stuff for the hitch, he's a, fuzzball
Really enjoy attention to detail you give equivalent.
Meatball is so cool and makes me smile. I want one like him lol.
Beautiful trailer Matt , plus a good price !
Your helpers are back! Nice!
Yeah, looks like Meatball has tons of energy and keeps waiting on you to kick the ball. He looks to be perplexed why you aren't kicking the ball constantly for him. :) Love the new trailer and video's!
Very nice trailer. One nice thing about putting the ring hitch style coupler is most people dont have a pintle hitch
Glad to see you got the new trailer you needed. I love your dogs. Meatball really seems to enjoy that ball.
Hitch is only as strong as the bolts holding it. Looks like its about time to get some new Grade 10 ones for the truck side.
That's a full-time job keeping meatball going chasing that ball
we dont see them this side of the pond but I think you have had a good deal there Mat well done I am biting at the bit to get back on the farm with my big toys
Love the Trailer it's a nice one, you don't have to say sorry for your dog.
Pintle is where it's at man. Always preferred a pintle over a ball for obvious reasons. Way stronger, easier to hook up to, and more versatile than the ball hitch. I've always used them on everything I've towed. Nice trailer indeed. Meatball is a great pup. Hes hilarious to watch 👍😎
You should have more Meatball in your videos! He's awesome! 😄
Great trailer btw! 🙂
Who's the guy that Meatball has in his videos?
3:35 Holy crap! In Massachusetts, I pay 140 annually to register my 8000 lbs trailer. I wish I could go up to Maine to register my trailer but taxachusetts made it illegal to pull out of state registered trailers behind Mass. registered vehicles.
Meatball. Opening with a fine ditch face-plant. Nice recovery though. Oh, and a nice trailer too. 😊
Haha yes he can take a lick and keep going that’s for sure. You can’t hurt this dog
He loves that ball!
His dog made my day
MATT, great video. Thank you.
Love the deck over trailer , I'm like you don't really like fenders even with a car trailer. And the lunette ring is way strong for the connection but I would run a 2 5/16s ball to. And yes I like wider ramps I also like the ramps to fold over the dove tail so you have the full length of the trailer flat if you need it. Great buy.
(I know this is on an old video but I’m on a DC binge) but we bought a 22 foot iron bull tilting deck over. We threw a 25k ball on there and it’s the greatest ball hitch ever. It has a flared coupler and a super nice latch. Always have used ball hitches but once had a rental trailer with a pintle, but yeah this turned out to be a good purchase.
Meatball needs his own channel!
I keep telling the wife... I don’t have enough time for this one let alone another
That bull dog and giant ball obsession is hilarious! I love watching him lug it around everywhere. He's quite good at it. Lol
Nice trailer. Congrats. In you application pintle hitches make more sense IMHO. There is a reason the military uses pintle hitches.....quick to connect and strong as can be.
Don't forget that lashing them with straps and chains is also an option that doesn't work with ball hitches
Crazy dog with that ball.
Dog stole the show 👏👏👏👍👍
He always does lol
you can spray rust blocker paint on the undercarriage to keep it 20 years. Great video. Thanks!
awesome exercise the the meatball there.
I know I'm late here but Id chacne all the lights to LED's and add a couple of 6"LED Led
Housings up front on top and maybe a couple at the rear (if not underneath )
for load and unloading sometimes ya just need the light!
Those ramps I'd just get some angle iron of the size (or just wider to overlap) used there,
cut what you got down the middle and cut some 10 in lengths,
center them (over lap the 2in on each end/side)
and weld them on both sides (top and underneath should be plenty strong).
New trailer looks and works good. Anxious to see it used more.
Nice pick-up on that trailer. My uncles would regularly spray the underside of their trailers and vehicles with used motor oil. Kept them rust free and most important it kept the road salt of it. They lasted for many years that way.
Kool trailer!! Will work well. Luv the dogs also
I didn't subscribe for Meatball content but I wholeheartedly approve!
Meatball!!!!😍
Awesome new trailer great buy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I love this channel, thank you for all the videos keep up the good work
You'll love those tires! I have them on all mine and the same ply as my semi tires.
Imma be that guy and say that the ball/pintle debate is irrelevant because 5th wheel is where it's at for heavy pulling.
Also +1 for meatball. Reminds me of when my boy was young and energetic.
I love the boundless energy of Meatball! He's brilliant!
Sadly, my only knowlwdge of trailers is from the UK, and no help to you at all! :-O
I love your videos , I never know what I'm in for but never a disappointment. Thanks for sharing.
Well thank you! Means a lot!
Meat ball is quite a smart dog. Cute. I like him.
Great trailers, Great videos........
Good purchase
Nice trailer Matt. Great Video!
Good trailer it will work for you well.
Great work thanks for the awesome content
Looks like a well built trailer from what I can see.
It seems to be!
Cool trailer:) I'm still dying laughing at meatball!!! Cool deal on the registration!:)
I agree on the pintle hitch
Nice trailer pick up !
Great trailer choice!
just makes sence, thanks for the video
Enjoyed video. Nice trailer. Roscoe likes his ball!!!
good deal on that trailer wellk done sir Matt
great job buddy and great video as always buddy didn’t know you had a cat and have a pick up truck with different Hercules tires 😎👊🏻👍🏻
looks the goods mate should give many years of service I'd say
I bought a similar trailer to yours about a year ago . I bought a Kaufman trailer 16,000 gvw. For the most part I like my trailer. I don't care for loading my skid steer on to it. I did a review on my trailer on my channel a while back of pro's and cons. I prefer a ball mount to pineal ring. Enjoy your trailer and thanks for sharing .
You can use a plate of steal bigger over the other part they actually sale them again love that trailer I used one like that for over thirty five years you got a great deal thumbs up
Enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing. That hitch is actually called a lunette eye. The part on the towing vehicle is the pintle hitch.
thanks for the info... i always just called it the ring haha
The new trailer looks good. Only a little surface rust to get sorted. You did good Matt.
grats on the new trailer. Looks like a good one.
That’s what we say in Minnesota, GUTANTITE !!!!!!!!!!! All the Norweigns in Minnesota !!!!!
I much prefer a pintle hitch too. I plan to put one on the White 4000 Semi tractor I'm working on on. It has a wet kit and I'd like to put a lift and flat dump bed on it, then hang boxes under for compressor & welder and use it as my utility/service truck. With a pintle hitch I can pull my brothers extra equipment trailer behind it. There's no telling what I'll drag home LOL. I always enjoy seeing what you're up to. Look forward to the next one.
Back in the "good old days" when I worked for a living, pistol rings were all we used industrially.
I think that was a great buy nice trailer
No whatsoever experience from this kind of trailers, I live in Sweden (Europe) and brakes on trailers below 7716 lb (3500 Kg) are usually just applied by back-pressure thru mechanical linkage as trailer pulls on the truck.
Electrical trailer brakes here have usually a pressure sensor mounted at that ball hitch, however those are not commonly used now days.
Anyone that can give general basic info about this type of trailer brakes? I am just curious.
Lived in Wisconsin for a while in 2009, got the impression it was OK to haul most things with no brakes or registration on trailer (had an old boat) no memory of even seen a boat trailer with brakes...
Grate videos you make, AutoCar truck is my favorite, maybe Meetball will get a ride in it some day...
Meatball is such a ham. He is so happy.
Congratulations on your new trailer.
Such a big ball for a little dog but looks like he loves it.
👍🏼trailer looks great
Had several different trailers when we were in the construction business .
Basically all of them trailers are built pretty much the same .
Man your truck sounds good!
Nice Trailer!
great trailer
Im with you Matt pintel hitch every time
That's cool 🐕 dude 😎 got love them lol
Good morning Matt, you can drop that trailer off at my place lol. Thank you for the great videos. Steve from N.B Canada
