    Morning from Cranbury NJ. Both of us are here. Bout an extra 20 miles but less stressful than going to jersey city and way more room to back in. Can actually come here early and they won't bother you

    Yep that's what I like about it. And sliding the tandems with a heavy load on it's nice to have LL reverse. Idk the ratio on this Mack 18 but in LL you can walk faster than it at 2000 rpms. Wish it was an Eaton though.

    Yeah they just paved parts of 81 about 2 years ago close to the NY border and the same exact rough patches are back again. Piss poor job. Do it the cheapest way possible and pocket the money amongst themselves

    Looks like a normal crusher move here, truck is a little new though.
    There's still room on the neck for a roll of belt, and some screens between the dozers.

    Steady stream of black smoke, no donuts or puffs...runs too smooth to be a pit truck. And you're right...lots more room on there.
