Big Loads - Post Photos Number 2

You noticed that too?

 

Tandem drive tractor I assume by the position on the deck?

 

Oh yeah. Was a nice Pete at one point. Now it smells like an asphalt plant with all the oil it’s burning

 

What size hoe? Looks to me like he will need an OS/OW permit anyway, so I'm not sure I understand loading it that far back. He must be pretty close to being overheight by the looks of it.

 

It’s a 300. I’d say he’s about at max. It’s gonna be a long ride back to Alberta. That front axle on that trailer is begging for mercy

 

And by the way the truck is aired up

 

Wow, I would have guessed he hadn't even picked it up yet, and certainly didn't air the bags up. That trailer doesn't look happy, but certainly it's rated for 35 tons isn't it?

 

It’s a 35 maybe even a 40. But that will be an evenly distributed 35 or 40. Not concentrated rating like on a true equipment trailer

 

Maybe it's that far back to leave room for two or three nested buckets. And a couple of spare rams. And some track parts.
