Hahahaha that's sketchy!

Pro-tip: a few years ago I rented their car trailer for my race car, but my car was too low to use their strap system.

We ended up putting eye bolts through the existing holes for the straps, which solved the problem:

Seen it a few times on the 10 and 19 headed towards Nogales, but usually a 26’ box truck with 2 small cars.

You will see the same thing from time to time on the 10 freeway in the desert going towards Arizona. Pretty sure the are crossing the border. Usually a box truck with a pos car or truck stuffed in it.

I've been renting those trailers quit a bit lately and find the D-Rings on the inner rails work best. I'm opposite where the tires have been too big to use their BS front straps. The cheesy Husky $10 2" straps work perfect just cut off the excess 30ft!

….but it’s strapped in, it ain’t goin’ nowhere. Shit, it was fine without the strap, but I wanted it to be extra safe, you know, just in case.

I see a lot of Toyota’s towing another identical one. They also seem to be a group of 3-4 drivers too. Seen same deal with cars towing identical car.
I've been told these folks are migrant workers who work the various farms throughout the state. Says something that they are driving Toyota trucks while towing Toyota trucks. 😉
