    If you go....park your truck with the keys in it at my place. Appreciate it. I've been looking for a new to me t8 or western star. Can't find anything that I like good enough to pay what their asking.

    This one? I’m kind of partial to it as a company truck honestly. It’s one of the last ones in our fleet to not have collision mitigation ########. E0DCC270-3FC7-4C1C-A87A-5B3095E1100C.jpeg 69B615CD-CDF6-4359-B309-B9CCEF6D8460.jpeg

    My experience with windmills is hauling the containers that have all the assembly parts. Each can had all the necessary stuff to build 3 units.
    When I did that, I was usually the duster. I have never seen a tower section on a trailer like that. Most were on those schnabbler type units. Is it a regional thing or ?.

    If you’re gonna pull a trailer like that you may as well spec out a valve to easily raise the suspension IMO — makes life a lot easier

    I don’t think that would save him now. But between over inflating the drives and the trailer axles he could’ve probably made it


    Friday night quarterback I will.
