Actually, a lot of firsts.
First OD load.
First time pulling an OD permit on my authority.
First time pulling/loading a boat.
First 1000 mile day.
Yeah, yeah, it's not a flatbed load. I posted a flatbed load pic in the flatbed load section. I'll keep posting more flatbed pics. Where else would you post an OD load? Heavy haul?
My first OD load.

Bet you made a lot of new friends when the boat rolled in the drive way. Not really any good way to put a sign on the front of a pickup. Did she run a little warm with the radiator blocked?
MJ1657 Thanks this. -
I don't think I made any new friends on this trip. It was a huge PITA trip, but I stuck to the route and drove like a little ol' lady.
It WAS a long day, and now I know a little more what OS/OW guys go through in a day.Last edited: May 4, 2016

I have seen some pickups put the sign on top of their cab or use fence posts in the bed to hold their sign.
barroll Thanks this. -
Agreed. Make yourself some stakes that fit in the front pockets of bed. Look at pilot cars see how some do it. It will save ya a bit of nose obsturctuon

GM is the same. My Silverado guages mimic real guages.. but in truth they are not very acurate. Ford is like that with performance cars too. Mustangs are the same way. First 2 mods to my mustangs were always exhaust and a guage pod for temp, oil pressure and air/fuel ratio.
Hurstcatalinaflyer Thanks this. -
I see so many "flying under the radar", " bootlegging it" - whatever.
Some days when I see someone just doing the right, legal thing, and playing by the rules, it makes me feel a bit better.spyder7723, passingthru69, Ruthless and 2 others Thank this.
