Yes, yes is the answer. I'd even rock a Mustang II with that poking out of the hood.
What about a Prius?

I've never understood trailers like that with the axles so far apart. I also don't understand why the hellthe idiot videoing that mess couldn't turn the fucking phone sideways - long horizontal object and the camera is vertical!Youtube can't change it so shorts aren't vertical video.

FIFY
Because you obviously have never been a OTR driver. Spread axles make it so you don't have to slide your tandems to meet different states pin laws. Or having to slide your tandems to move the weight from the trailer to the drives & a little to the front axle.
With a standard semi you can haul 80,000 lbs. 12k on the steers & then 34K on the drives if there are tandem axles & 4 tires per axle & 34K on the trailer tandems also. Adding more axles/tires allow you to carry more weight provided you are licensed for the additional weight. You pay per each state & then you have to know which roads you are & aren't allowed to drive on.
When you get into the heavy hauling world like @RINC that is a whole other animal.
The last time I looked through one of those, I asked the guy what happens if I check that box, which I would have done. He informed me that it has to match my state issued license/ID, and since our/my state does not allow such dumbassery, it would be rejected. I had all intentions of checking that box and making the gov play their own stupid games. I love muddying the water when it comes to my personal info.
Ok - good to know, I learned something today! BUT - isn't that setup hard to turn?
How do Spread Axle Trailers Differ? A spread axle provides a more stable configuration during loading and unloading of the heavy equipment. Spaced axles offer a significant weight distribution leeway compared to closed spaced axles due to the large wheel base brought about by the spread.
Great work @Squatch !

Somewhere out there is a mid 60s MoPar without a scoop.
If you look closely at it, I think you'll find that it's likely the entire hood off a Jeep YJ. Think about it. They'd be cheap enough and plentiful, too. I do actually think that's what it is.
I think you're right.
If you look closely enough, it appears that he never even bothered filling in the mounting holes for the latches!

I'm just disappointed he trimmed it so short.
