That canopy was not too well secured if you ask me. Just folded like a taco.

True. I would hate to see it in a really bad storm.

Yes it is good to know the height of something that tall if you are pulling it behind your rig no matter what rig you have. Always observe the height of what you are pulling under.

Ouch. It seems those columns were made of bricks? Nothing inside for structural support? Weird......

Your best bet would be to get the HD leaf springs from quadratec or add some type of overload spring to your existing springs. I have a set of Old Man Emu overload springs if you are interested. I don't tow.

Looked like it should have had better support and it does look like it was heavy enough to crush that pick-up. Wonder if he was killed in that fiasco?
