I have been using a S/A L8000 for just under a year now. It has mainly been a tow vehicle but I have hauled some moderate loads. I very close to purchasing a tandem and happen to come across some youtube videos of trucks flipping over, sinking etc that has gotten my attention. I think with a tandem I am more likely to encounter problems than i did with the S/A. Are there any tips or things to watch out for? I imagine a lot of it is use common sense but still I'd be interested in hearing any input.
Here is a video of a tandem sinking and I can't say i would have really seen a way to prevent it.
