the coments are funny



There is a reason that dozer was on a lowbed. Anyone with any knowleg in moving heavy equipment knowes you dont drive it off the back expecialy if the load is overweight.I guess you get what you pay for.

If he had set the trailer brakes he should of been fine. We used to load and unload a D-7 off the back of a triaxle trailer all the time. Usually worked best to drop onto two railroad ties. One cross ways and the other like a ramp, it was much easier than dropping 40". I was a lot faster than dropping the neck on an old folding trailer.
