I thought that was to center the weight better.That's why a lot of guys back them in?
Yeah, the crash idea concerns me. It would only be in the bed when pulling a smaller bumper pull camper. Otherwise a trailer. Would rather not pull doubles, haha.
I've put a number of ATV's in the bed in this manner, but they always fit within the wheel wells and with the tailgate up. This would be a different story. Maybe pulling doubles would be better.......😜
