Trailer salespeople: It can tow that!

[BarnyardEngineering]

Anybody seen the most recent Texas Pride trailer commercial?

Santa's looking at a massive gooseneck dump trailer. He asks the saleswoman if his reindeer can pull it, and she says, "Sure!"

Typical trailer salesperson... They'll tell any customer anything just to make a sale! Even Santa!

Well technically he asked if he could hook the reindeer up to it. He didn't ask if they would be able to pull it.

Good catch, it's all in how you ask the questions

The worst salesmen I see in these modern times are solar salesmen.I hire my body out to an installer,and we have gone to sites to do a job,and the guy I worked for would say,what kind of ignoramus sold these people solar for this site? It doesn't fit here.They would tell how the government was going to pay for most of it,(just not true) then tell them the government program had ended,but the company picked up on the financing.There have always been salesmen that could sell air conditioners to eskimos,in the 60's it was aluminum siding.A dish salesman from Radio Shack years ago checked out my house for a signal,he said if I cut some trees I would get good reception.They were my neighbors trees,and he actually told me I had the right to cut them if they interfered with my reception.He wanted to install it,then give it a couple of weeks to see if it worked OK,and then if it didn't I was to have the neighbors trees cut.

That is how they sell so many dirt bikes, ATV's, UTV's, Side-by-sides, etc.

Where can I ride this ? the customer says
Salesman says Everywhere!

Worst ones are car salespeople, they try to convince they are your best buddy while bending you over , getting you ready to drive it home. And I don't mean the car.

This online towing calculator will accurately and impartially match a tow vehicle and trailer. It's designed for travel trailers, but the same statistics apply. Not all vehicle salesmen or trailer salesmen stretch the truth, but they don't last long on the job.

I have not found an honest salesman yet on anything. But then I'm pretty cynical.

That is a pretty good calculator. Too many estimates fail to take payload capacity of the tow vehicle into account. You often run out of payload capacity for hitch weight long before you get to the identified "towing capacity".
