Yeah, square bales MAYBE...you couldn't fit 40 round bales on a semi trailer.

Back on topic, I haven't really towed anything stupid heavy, except one time I did pull a 20' car trailer with a 76 F150 (Ranger package, ironically) on it. My old Ranger hated me for doing it. I just found it slightly funny that the little Ranger was pulling the big Ranger since the big one was clearly more suited for the job.

40 square bales, 3 round bales.

I towed a 28 hp jd 4x4 tractor with a tiller on it and a dingo skidloader with a bucket, trencher, and post hole digger on a 16' trailer behind my 88 singlecab 4x4 5spd 2.9. I didn't smell the clutch once, but the steering felt really loose, and I knew the brakes would be nearly worthless. I kept it under 50, and I only towed it about 20 miles. I would have used my 06 f150 but I let it sit too long and the battery was completely shot! pics to come shortly

Not heavy, but towed like a ton of bricks. I did not think it would tow as bad as it did. From Northern NJ to Hunter area NY about 130 miles. I was moving and need to move one of those Suncast plastic sheds (7 feet tall x 5 feet wide x 7 feet long) and some household stuff (500 to 700 lbs). I set the Shed up (fully assembled) on a side load quad trailer (just like an open bed 2 up snowmobile trailer) framed it with some 2x3 to support the wind loading and stop the racking, strapped it down and on the way. I had an 8 foot popup that weighted in around 1800 lbs loaded. The quad trailer and shed with household stuff could not have weighted more than 1200 at most 1500 (4 guys easily lifted the shed empty, 2 could have but it would be tippy), the trailers alluminum, and the households? I could barely get it to pull 65 up the NY thruway, and I mounted some plywood on the front as a splitter (like a V nose but only the top half). Trying to tow the broadside of a barn.....

I put a 900lbs pallet of tools in the back 30 miles down the freeway to drop it off at a warehouse.

I also towed my brothers old Camero (weighing 4500lbs) on a trailer with my truck to a junkyard a few weeks ago. It did not like to start going up hill but got up no problem once the clutch was fully engaged.

This is about 5000 pounds, and didnt do a bad job doing it. I have trailer brakes on both axles other wise it would never happen. And i stiffened up the suspension. Also got to give a shout out to my super chips trailer tow mode lol

one time me and my friend were goin to the scrap yard and he had an 88 f150 w/ an old heavy ass pintle hitch deckover trailer that we stacked 3 cars on, and he ran out of gas on the highway. luckily i was following him w/ my 86 ranger w/ 2.3 and 5 speed and hooked a 1/2in chain to the ranger bumper and to his truck and it pulled it to the gas station. i estimate it to be minimum 10,000 lbs.

 

[djkommando]

oh and also the same friend had an 84 2.0 ranger that he used to haul scrap cast iron in and hauled no less than 4000 lbs a few times a day and once i believe it was 5800 lbs. needless to say the truck is now kinda bent in half. where the cab meets the bed is the highest point. but he kept drivin it.
