Good for you! Taking the high road is always best. If you want to you can come cut my yard for free too! With an old 44" Craftsman mower it used to take me 6 1/2+ hours to mow. I now have two 54" Poulan mowers and another 44" Craftsman and can get it done in under three hours now.:D

screw the high road. rake all your leaves into his yard while the radio blasts away at his windows. bah! humbug!

Commercial to RV title in Florida

Typical dumbass bureaucrats. They specifically define a category of recreational vehicles as a "fifth wheel" trailer, and then specifically say you can't title and license a truck with the required fifth wheel hitch you need to tow it. And they wonder why everybody hates the government.

I guess technically they don't say that the toter doesn't exist, just that they won't license it as an rv. Even though it is in every way manufactured and equipped like any other rv.
The really bad part of this type of law, safety wise, is that is why you are seeing the sudden appearance of race rigs with ridiculously huge "tag" trailers instead of the safer more stable gooseneck/fifth wheel configuration. Some of these huge new tag trailers are up to 40' in length (plus the tongue) and a full 13'6" height. There is nobody that can tell me that setup is as stable as a similarly sized gooseneck, but the truck towing the tag is legal as an rv, and the gooseneck isn't. Professional bureaucrats writing rules about things they have no understanding of whatsoever. Plus the aforementioned fact that every legitimate rv fifth wheel trailer NEEDS A FIFTH WHEEL HITCH ON THE TRUCK. |
I wonder if the truck they mean has commercial fifthwheel on it? I wish they would clarify that. What would happen if say I had a LEGALLY titled motorhome here in Minnesota and tried to title it in Florida?
|
I don't think they would know a commercial fifth wheel from a hat, except for one would not fit on their head. I can guarantee that "fifth wheel" truck they use for their example picture actually has a gooseneck ball on it like 99% of those toterhomes do.
|
More than likely. Just like the one's with a gooseneck ball and claim it is a fifthwheel.....

So why do these build take so long...? and is that a bad thing? because projects like this come along.
The Attack Cat Build: Redneck Re engineering! what do you get when you trade a shotgun for an old Hobie 18 and sell a mountain bike to buy the tower off of a Magnum sportfish? A Sandbar cruiser with style! https://www.truckconversion.net/attac...3e80d541c8.jpg Plus https://www.truckconversion.net/attac...a41c41c8c6.jpg |
so I cut down the tower and re welded it... glassed and painted up the hulls...

while this project sat around for a while... the locating and collecting of the bits and pieces is half the fun...
https://www.truckconversion.net/attac...661a180356.jpg |
Time to take her out and play... all in one Benelli Nova 12Ga, one 10 year old full suspension mountain bike and about $1500 later...
https://www.truckconversion.net/attac...7c94cf70fd.jpg now it gets hitched up to the Toter and away we go! |
Looks pretty cool.
