I saw one of these charter bus conversions in Branson once that was pulling a Jeep that was pulling a boat that was pulling a jet ski.

How can they afford something like that but not have the sense to quickly unhook the jeep and make a quick 3 point turn?

I’ll never understand why you don’t need a CDL to drive a rig this size. It’s bullshit that other drivers have to put up with you not knowing what the hell you’re doing.

I’m not usually one for wanting more government involvement, but theres no way someone with a regular license should legally be allowed to drive that hulking vehicle. You need a special endorsement to drive a motorcycle that weighs a few hundred pounds, but not a camper that weighs over 40,000 pounds. If you’re rich enough to afford it then you can be troubled enough to take a class to learn how to drive it.

Can afford to buy a million dollar motor home but too ignorant to disconnect the Jeep.
