I will probably end up with these some day also, good to know how they are fabricated.
One of my jobs was to design and build weld destruct fixtures, while also setting up the welders. You would be amazed how strong a good weld is, and also how bad a good looking weld car be. Trailers have many more feet of weld bead than they need for strength, this makes them look strong and make up for marginal weld quality. They don't destruct test trailers.
