    I saw this compactor in a TS today and can't believe that someone would do this to a trailer. The boards are broken,cross members crushed, and the outside rails rolled over. [​IMG]

    If you must destroy a trl. to haul "Oil field" your just a wheel holder that only cares about a paycheck. Oh by the way I move Oil field equ. at times and have yet to destroy a trl. just so I could say "Look at me I haul Oil field"

    I can tell by the picture that's not that compactors first trip. It's been on and off that trailer before. Someone destroyed it before so what the heck, we use this trailer for the compactors from now on, lol. Probably some dump truck rookie with a new cheap road construction company that moved a few dozers before and he got a hold of big daddy. Probably their only trailer they could afford. Landfills wouldn't do that. Plus there's no trash stuck on it. It wasn't a contract haul. They have that strap holding the frame together. DOT would have fun with that trailer.
    Pictures speak a thousand words.

    Them wheels do what they are designed for, lol. :biggrin_2559:

    Sad part is that around here, there are a couple of companies that would have "roaded" that thing. After all, why waste the money on transport when you can just drive it down the freeway, (and hope you don't get caught. . . ):biggrin_25513:
