A 1200 cant pull a trailer, not only would it be too long but the overhang on the back end would cause the hitch to drag on the ground anytime you went up a driveway at an angle. This is already an issue with the P-1000's that we have, and a P-12 would be even worse.
In theory at least a P32 could pull one if you installed the hitch and wiring, but I wouldnt want to drive a setup like that. The p-32 is too small and light and doesnt have a dual rear axle.
Steve I am pretty impressed with the plethora of UPS pics that you seem to have......with you in them. Who do you get to take all of these pics? And crap while i am at it you always have a smile on your face.....I am beginning to think you are an on road supe or somthing. And what is with that freakin gleaming clean package car....anyone else find this fishy?
LOL, almost made me choke on my plate of steak & onions. CA, I'm just one of those guys that loves what he does. I had my customer take that picture, see him in the gleam of my pkg car? Don't really aspire to MGMT, but you never know, maybe one day.
We have a brand new workhorse P-12 that pulls a TP-60 with no problem at my building. The hitch is mounted over the bumper flush with the truck and it has a removable drop hitch to clear the bumper. I don't know why people say its to long that nuts its no different than 4 door pickup witha 8'ft bed pulling a trailer. Also a P-32 could absolutely pull a TP-60. A P-32 is a e250 ford van chassis, what nobody has ever pulled a trailer with a ford van????A 1200 cant pull a trailer, not only would it be too long but the overhang on the back end would cause the hitch to drag on the ground anytime you went up a driveway at an angle.

You silly goose, Stevie rides a bike.Let's see STUG, Coldwater posted this at 1:23pm today (Sun)....did you put your uniform on, drive to your Center, hook up a trailer,take a picture, return home, download this picture just for this thread? All in about 35 minutes?...lol...your like Speedy Gonzalez....
Couldn't you rig the hitch so the stinger goes over the bumper on the 1200. That is how our 700's are...It seems like all of our hitches fall off of our 1000s they are all attached under the bumper.

A P800? Are's were all pulled from service years ago since they either couldn't get parts or wouldn't pass Ca. smog. More junk for the rest of the country.
Most P60's are pulled with P10 (P100)'s here. A few P70's.
Does anyone code the pickup pieces in the trailer differently?
We have guys that get credit for 400 pieces and never load a thing. That can pay $200 a week easy. No extra code like smalls are supposed to be counted.

I'm pretty sure that was out of the center I started in. We did some crazy stuff back in the old days. (started in 84) Gotta love the the PX(package exchange) between feeders in the middle of nowhere at 20 below, back to back in the dark.(that almost sounds dirty!) The '71 guys were a great group of role models for us younger ones. Anything to get the package to the customer. Send-agains were few and far between.When I first started (1971) there was a driver from somewhere in South Dakota that used a diesel powered P600 to pull another gas powered P600 with a tow bar to the hub in Moorhead, Mn. for the nightly sort.
