      They’re idiots for getting themselves in that situation to start with. The way those ramps are, work best on even ground. There is a road right there, instead they drive in a mushy field thinking that’s gonna save time?? The trailer is probably damaged because the tongue of it isn’t designed for that kind of weight and stress. They’d be lucky to not have hairline fractures. I had a trailer drive over the other tire when backing up, all because I had to get on the brakes hard and the trailer caused me to shimmy to a stop. Broke the shackle mount on one side. Drove fine until I got to the sight and put her in reverse. I thought I ran over someone or something and my heart stopped. That trailer was rated for way more. Just surprised it broke so easily.

      @@HiddenValleyHomestead maybe some when they are new, any trailers and beavertail trucks like that we ever came across while working for 3 different plant hire companies were welded in and not even originally welded by us, true they never had brand new trailers but it is extremely unlikely that those companies somehow got the only ones ever with welded pins. Not to mention all the pins that get warped from loading/unloading on uneven ground and the odd slap of a machine. All the lowbed, large trailers had removable pins but they were a bigger diameter and caused less problems. Unfortunately when people hear that something can carry 10 ton, they all know that means it has been tested to a highter weight and therefore overload more and more, and ramps that can move side to side to allow for different track widths are the ones that get the most abuse

    I wonder if they could have picked up the pallet and back all the way up to the ramps to take load off the hitch for easy cranking and disconnect from the trailer and drive the truck out, than pick up the pallet and turn 180 degrees around while on top of the trailer and lower the trailer all the way down to the ground and drive off toward the front either side of the jack?

      @@davidsignor7931 well I mean others do use this road so unloading equipment in the middle of the road is illegal and unsafe. If it was their property then yes it would have been smarter to do so but in this case they couldn't. Then again I don't think this is in the united States.

      Rig was stuck there. Could of done it 5 different ways to avoid this, and at least 2 better ways to get out of it, but 'just pulling forward' wasn't an option. They didn't just park where they were on purpose.

    I don't think this is a skid steer idiot more like the guy driving the truck and his choice and location to unload. The Skid steer operator did the best he could under the situation he was in.
