    It's definitely the 8.5' width that's too much for your truck, and not the 24' length

    Good point... This is sort of a Friday... First thing that came to my mind was I wonder if he could fit 2 of his truck in the trailer and tow it with a real truck.

    A full size diesel would be a much better choice. This is nice for the redarc...

    How fitting considering it's pronounced ass-ton Martin.

    I had a couple of 8.5 x 28’s for storage. I towed them a handful of times. They’re hard to beat for that!

    i would figure that's a far better marketing campaign for their rental program.

    As I have a similar 8.5'x24' trailer I can't believe you towed that without brakes. My original tow vehicle was a C2500 truck with the ability to tow the complete 9,990lb rated trailer. With the Tacoma I had to reduce the towed weight down to the 6,500lbs. Full I've only towed it once between the Canadian border and the Sacramento Valley. Did really well for what it is. Did temporarily install an Auto Trans cooler.

    of course it's fake. aston martin would've needed to entirely shutter and re-brand themselves after tarring and feathering their current management and ad agency in the ensuing gender war if an ad copy like that were officially released.

    but we all know, it's not really incorrect...
