It's a Facebook video of a 5th wheel being towed backwards by a Suburban. Just a good chuckle and example of how innovative folks are. It would make Red Green proud if not a wee bit jealous.

I copied it from a post on another website and it works there and on my end... sorry, not sure what the issue is.

Works for me when I click on the screen... kind'a short. I'm not so sure that was part of the Red Green Show. He did one bit in regards to the difficulty in backing a boat trailer into a lake, I thought it was that one. He rigged up his car so he didn't need to back up but used the front of the vehicle instead.

And of course, duct tape was involved...

Looks normal to me, I was on the Missouri in sept. and when the fifth wheel next to me left,the fifth wheel was towing a pickup with a trailer hauling their ATVs behind them. I'll bet it was a real bitch to park.......

I knew a guy who did just that. He had a hitch on his front bumper. He said it worked better than trying to back his boat into the water.

It wasn't from Red Green, but that's who I immediately thought of when I saw it. Supposedly it was taken at a gas station in eastern MT; someone on their way to work in the Bakken oil fields. When you own a 5th wheel and a Suburban, what's a guy to do? :)

Just a little levity whilst we wring our hands about hatchery vs. wild steelhead, whether we actually have the right to fish, and who will occupy the mahogany desks in DC.

I bet he had a problem with his hitch and found a way to hook up his 5th wheel (chains) to pull it away from the pump. Temp solution to allow others to fuel up.

I love Red Green and his suspenders! Is the show still on late nights PBS? I go to bed early, so have not seen that show for over a decade.
