Overload of the Day

[DMiller]

Asphalt haulers here have gone almost exclusively to Three Drops, Quint Axle sets, spoke to a driver that felt all those did was add maintenance and failures, two seemed excessive but worked fine. Another Craze is a Drop axle as on extreme length Concrete Mixers on a Pnuematic Swing arm.

Here is a overload for some peoples minds. Personally I like it for the fact it bugs people
who can't stand others crazy ideas. Anyone who thinks outside the box is just not normal
for some. Most people like to keep the peas on their plate from mixing with the potato's,
everything must be separate no mixing of stray peas. Yeah it's ugly as hell but to him it's
what he likes and makes him money. One thing's for sure he doesn't spend allot of time
polishing or wasting money those supplies. Makes the world go around, if everyone did
the same thing it would be a real dull place.

Ask me how I knew he was a short little s**t without seeing his picture. That is art and I do appreciate that the flat black goes on everywhere over everything no fuss no muss.

I don't think Ira isn't short and not a little **** by no means and he's definitely put a lot of work and effort into that old freightliner with a 3406 cat. Most of those zig zag cut plates are deflect air away from the mirrors or cab because of the fenderless front tires.

Wicked intent semi.

 

[DMiller]

So long as its safe to drive who would care!!
AFAIC he has big Cahones! Doubt are many that would attempt a brake check of that!

 

[terex herder]

I'm surprised no front fenders/open tires is legal. Around here the rock throwing tires would tend to sandblast/destroy the sides of the truck.

 

[cfherrman]

I'm pretty sure he talks about that in a video somewhere.

That's why there is so much flat plate on the truck so he can control the air and keep it off the cab

 

[cfherrman]

Watch these two shorts from him, these like 4 - 8 total about the deflectors

Was on way back to yard yesterday, one of these wannabe RSH super haulers was in the way as stopped to get some stuff for dinner for the wife. The couple were arguing of not being able to access the city park camp areas not because of flooding but for too much Sh!t, were going to be charged for Two sites had they had Two open and didn’t. Were trying to gain approval of the Loutre Store to use the open parking lot for a night and were getting nowhere. Was a F550, 44’ fifth wheel and a 24’ pontoon boat on a two axle trailer, where river access also is currently Closed. Had weight tag on truck as I looked so had DOT been down there as usual his Overlength Multiple trailers rig likely would have cost him a hefty fine if no Class A with Multiple endorsement.

F550 + 44'RSH + 24' Canoe. Credit cards maxed couldn't afford to park it.

From store clerk today, They were headed home as she left the store last night, not sure where was going to park for the night but was not allowed there.

Now that was down right unhospitable.

Exactly, the store insurance will not cover is the reason.

A large trucking company hauls doubles and triples to their own yards, and that works. Those guys know where they can go and don't go off script.
Heading out on the open road with a personal double is just boneheaded. it's like everybody has to give you a yard for free. He's one wrong turn away from plugging a road.
If you can't just back it up or turn around on your own, keep it off the road.
At least the RV's flat towing can unhook the Toad and re-connect after getting turned around.
We were on the way out of town and dropped my brother at King Street Station in Seattle. It's a dead end road I'm familiar with, and I flipped around right here without backing up my RSH and got the heck out of dodge after kicking him out.

May not be an overload but definitely shouldn’t be on the road

I took a different route in the lot and I found the trailer that goes with that bent pup box.
