Drafting aka following the car in front of you as close as possible to gain speed. Wasn’t actually drafting this thing, but it would be perfect for it. Was a joke.

lol it wasn’t an 18 wheeler. It’s just a HUGE giant square = would remove a lot of wind resistance, providing a good draft. Guess it was a fail.

It’s a horse trailer.

Dont fuck around with them.

If I was trailering my horse around and somebody decided it would be cute to try and gain some gas mileage by following closely…I’d likely stab them in the adams apple.
