    I've hauled a couple of mini excavators out of Dport and a loader or 2. Never had a cluster of mowers though. I know the ones your talking about and no thanks! Look like hell!

    I've hauled a few of them loads myself. Like you said they are easy and have been good loads to get me home.

    ouch ur blazing a trail man haha

    believe it or not a couple months ago i was behind a tmc truck in north dakota on some 70mph 2 lanes well something told me not to pass him so i just putted at 62 behind him when all of a sudden i see a sheriff in a pick-up truck throw on his blues and pull a u-turn right in front of me his back driver side tire came out off the ground about a foot as he drove in to the ditch luckily i got around him and next thing i know he blows by me and goes after the TMC!!!

    i ran in to him at the truck stop up the road and asked him what happend turned out WE both drove by a couple buildings not thinking anything of it well turns out the speed limit dropped to 30mph in that quarter mile stretch the cop clocked him at 63 in a 30 but as luck would have it he ran out of tickets that morning and let him go with a warning...

    im just so glad i didnt pass him id be in jail haha

    That was the OC center for the Schneider guys doing flat and H.H.
    Moved it from Green Bay away from the door slammers I was told.

    The parts dist. place did'nt it used to be in a mud pit in Rock Island?
    I remember when I was with PST / Trism and we had the yard in Rock Island our local shag guy bringing those garbage lds. into the yard with no tie down. And the poor drivers that had to tie them down.. Took about 2 hours I think to do it right..
    Glad I never had to do any of them
