Looks good working... the only work mine ever saw was towing the toys or recovering someone in over their head.

i drive all over my farm with it. when I had the hitch on it I hauled farm equipment around.. horse trailers, balers, hay rakes, hay wagons. Now it has no hitch, not as much "work".

No pics, but I had to tow our 20' twin axle all metal trailer, w/ 300 gallon fluid tank and pumps on it the other day. Our 7.3 F-250 had a major blowout. Firestone-go figure... Anyway, no brakes on the trailer because I didn't have the right electrical hook up on my hitch. Made the 80 look tiny, but it did just fine. The FJ80 brakes don't exactly inspire confidence with that kind of load though.
