Chris,

Would this be the small dump body on a F-350 (or equivalent) chassis.  We 
see a lot of them around here in the landscaping businesses.  Some of 
those mower trailers are really long.  I'd bet that with several mowers 
they approach the weight of the truck.  Most of these guys don't seem to 
drive with much respect for the trailer.
