Yep. Agreed. Sometimes it's unavoidable. Just gotta let the tires hit and or climb slow and easy. As more and more driveways, entrances, and intersections are being built with stupid high curbs and islands for “looks” as time goes by it’s a battle sometimes.

Maguire's extreme shine... not the foam though. I hate how it drips everywhere while its drying.D.Tibbitt and SmallPackage Thank this.

Yes, there are times when you need to run over a curb. But you do so very controlled and you make sure the curb and tires meet square and head on not on the sides. If you run those tires along the side of a curb there’s a high probability you can blow the tire out and then the rim will go next. You bring the tire squarely to the curb and then slowly up and over and then very slowly down the other side.

If your going to meet your woman. As your walking you see a PERFECT 10, your head is turned as you watch her. You walk into a telephone pole. What do you tell your woman when she asks how you got that bump on your forehead?
-
that the darned pole jumped out at you..??
works at most accident scenes...... -
Hell just a couple weeks ago i had to jump my steer on the sidewalk coming out of a shipper because it was so tight i couldnt make the turn without taking out their gate...jumped the sidewalk and cb antenna was sacrificed to the overhanging trees... but a 20 dollar cb antenna is much cheaper than a tow bill or damaging a building or running someone over....

Seriously, not being a smart ###, how did you hit a curb bobtail?

An hour ago I watched a Schneider truck put the trailer tandems through a large hole. He got lucky, no equipment damage probably empty. No one cares unless someone is broken or someone gets hurt
