Tex78... If u zoom in on that picture there is a heavy duty 2" strap over the rear upper axle.... Go smoke some more of that free grass, tex.... Jus sayin....... By the way, tex, what do u secure your atv down with?

Use 4 straps, 2 cris crossed pulling front forward, 2 cris crossed pulling rear back

And one extra pulling straight forward for extra

Never moves ect..... Oh and pretty dam close to what the cops want too

Won't hold up in court. Final securement is owners to do regardless of location.

If a dealer allowed an unsafe practice to happen on their property (regardless of who performed it) and that resulted in serious injury and or death, in today's world you bet they can have a bullseye on them. Taking pictures and putting it on their FB page wipes away any plausible deniability that they were unaware of the condition of that sled. Wouldn't be cut and dry by any means but a smart lawyer could make it really messy.

True dat, but there are legislated laws on load securement which would negate the dealer. Laws are federal and provincial so even a good / greasy lawyer would have a tough go.

I thought it wasn't even tied down?

 

[Joholio]

would it be wrong to tell a customer that maybe that is not the best way to haul a unit, and that it could be stored for a day or two so suitable transportation can be arranged

Absolutely not. Salesmen usually just take my money and say see ya later. Like my new travel trailer.

And there isn't a sled deck in the world that will help that guy. Little 5'6" box totally useless

I beg to differ as i have a 5.5 foot box on my tundra and i have the mline deck that works perfect for my 163" Prior to purchasing my deck i would just leave me endgate down and strap it forward!

you have an 8ft deck on a 5.5? or a 6.5ft deck? if its a 6.5 i would say it works but not perfectly thats forsure. i also had a kingranch with a 5.5 box.

Maybe I should call and get mine out of the crate... And get this thread back on track! Lol

It was tied down, but the guy only had one tow mirrow flipped out. That highly dangerous asymmetrical aerodynamic condition is guaranteed to flip the entire unit upside down and slide it at 140 kph into a school bus full of kindergarten children!

Chev and Ford also made a modified car/truck vehicle similar to your Tundra years ago, they called them El Camino's and Ranchero"s. . heehee !

I'm still learning. Hope this thread keeps going.

Were the children supervised by nuns?
