Yeah looking bqck the truck wasdefnitely undergeared for the haul but I took it so slow I didnt have any issues. After I burnt a full tank almost in the first 130 miles I had no desire to find out just how bad the mpgs were, that windy road 141 was about 35 mph most of the way with lots of 25 mph curves and 65 mph straightaways. The truck seemed to hate the trailer but didn't mind the dodge on te back, I burnt about 1.5 tanks on the way there with the empty trailer and 1 and 3/4 on the way back

Also the truck rolled to the front of the trailer when I undid the straps, it wasnt that ar foreward during the trip. The flatbed is over 10 feet long though and stuck about 4 feet off the trailer. I'm currently tryin to unload the flatbed for cheap because I don't want to go through the work of cutting it up to scrap it haha, not renting a trailer for 40 bucks in scrap haha, and its too wide for my driveway
