No it isn't. If it will move it it's just fine. Just look at some of the threads that have been posted the last few years.
Besides, 16,000 was when I pulled the Deuce home with my Dodge, the M813 is more like a tad over 20,000lbs.
If you ever get stuck I can pull your 915 with trailer home...
Although it weighed a lot because it was burned so badly they only gave us $700 which I'm sure will cover what Westy paid for it.
At least it wasn't anti-freeze....and only once because doing it twice would just be stupid.
We spent the rest of the day changing out the air pack and after bleeding it out and Gimpy exercising it the brakes were good to go. I took some pics of Gimpy playing with the truck on the farm working the sprag a little.
I'll paint her up and get her on the road when the paper work is done...
How we got it home.
Notice you can't even see the Dodge in front of the M813 towing it down the interstate. We got pics from the chase vehicle.
The 1/2 ton Dodge did a great job towing the big truck at 55MPH. It was a little hard on stopping but it does have a Hemi.

So JW4x4 runs into a guy at the DMV who says he has an MV he wants to unload. He wanted to scrap it but waiting for the EUC scrap prices dropped so JW says he can sell it for the guy with a couple of calls.
The guy didn't believe him but they exchanged info anyway. JW makes one call to Gimpy...
