Yup, that is a Goose Neck, even though the one in that photo looks to be a tiny 5th wheel and all aluminum, I still wouldn't want to drive that rig. The Frontier wasn't exactly designed for that application.....

Just wondering, why does the Frontier have a licence plate that says Fifth Wheel?

Apple devices will pop up a warning saying that the device is overheating.

Not sure if serious or not tbh.. This happens to most, if not all, major phone manufacturers. Everyone gets a bad egg once in a while, now if it truly was a design problem then that's a whole another story.. tongue.gif
