larsontiffany+FollowHow Big a Trailer Can You Tow—No CDL Needed!Ever wondered how massive a trailer you can haul without needing a commercial driver’s license? Here’s the scoop: as long as your vehicle’s total weight (including the trailer and everything in it) stays under 26,000 pounds, you’re good. But if your trailer alone weighs over 10,000 pounds and the combined weight tips past 26,000, you’ll need that CDL. Always check your truck’s specs before hitching up—no one wants a surprise ticket! #Cars #TowingTips #TruckLife145Share
Nicole Morgan+FollowTrailer Swaying? Here’s What Actually WorksEver had your trailer start swinging like it’s got a mind of its own? Don’t panic—just ease off the gas, keep your wheel straight, and let your car slow down naturally. No sudden moves! Once things chill out, pull over and check your hitch and load. Pro tip: keep your trailer’s weight balanced (60% up front), tie everything down, and consider a sway bar for extra peace of mind.
