Wow, first time I've seen a tag axle on a Ford Chassis Barth.

Perhaps because it is very long?

Overhang?

Perhaps because it is very heavy? The two gensets are amidship, so that wouldn't be a giant factor.

I have seen Ford chassis with tags on other brands.

Oh, without a doubt, I have seen these as well. It's just that this is the first time we've seen it on a Ford.

You know the saying... Barth would build anything.

I would also suspect the rear wheelchair lift has something to do with it too.

That one might be Nick, but they didn't give me any additional information when they gave us the picture and data tag number. 9705 M0031 34FF 2C

You know, there is a phone number in the Ebay listing... maybe I'll call it tomorrow and see if they'll snap a picture for me.
