    So I was supposed to do the flatbed load today but the place it was delivering to was closed for the holiday so I moved some equipment instead E6804531-01B1-4109-86AF-1588B621DE93.jpeg 05AB862B-CE25-4E7C-813D-5DA6D727DB5D.jpeg

    I was going to tell him that too, until I saw he needed a 34 when he delivered. What a great turn out. Weather was amazing!

    First How I found her. Second my best guess at weight distribution. Third I’m a little heavy. Gross was 98k I moved the machine at the truck stop 14 inches to the rear got it riding a little better balanced. Rolled on out of Ca.

    They're a piece of cake once you get used to it. It's like going from that big truck to a little car...you tend to over steer the little car because you're used to that longer slower turn of a truck. Articulated just responds to your movements quicker so you have to make yourself think about the move before you make it so you don't oversteer...but they are great for working in tight places because of that articulation. :)

    Didn’t recognize your truck, would’ve loved to meet you. You’re right, great turnout! So many trucks, not sure if I got to see them all!

    Yeah my first time in the step was fun too, got a bit close to the edge and had to pull it off and redo it lol. And it’s alway fun learning how a specific manufacturer has their machine set up, gotta love YouTube. :)
