Lol, I can't imagine what would happen if I had tire covers on my trailers. I can guaran-damn-tee that I'd forget about them at night and move the trailer with them on.

I’m glad I’m not the only one that does (or would do) boneheaded moves like that.
Forgetting to take wheel covers off I think would pair nicely with my normal routine of forgetting to unchock the wheels, then wondering why it won’t move.

Same. I would never do the cover thing cuz I KNOW I'd start dragging the trailer with them on. Half the time I forget the chock and then I also forget to take it with me

While I haven't done it YET, I'm scared to death I'll forget the security chain around the wheel an try to drive off with it still attached. That SHOULD remind me to take the cover off too

Got to use the winch pretty heavy the last couple of weeks moving cars around for my shop landlord. 2 camaros, a corvette, 53 suburban, a beetle and a 54 5 window pickup.
Then I moved my 78, the boys 95 and moved/sold the 3500 CC parts truck
It works really well, didn't seem to struggle much with anything. Most was all on concrete floors an stuff that rolled pretty easy after we got tires pumped back up. My stuff was outside by the time I got to it. No issues with the mount flexing or anything either so I think it'll be a decent setup. Overall still really happy with it an what all I've done to it.
