Used to live in Northern Virginia and hauled OD/OS all the time, if I would ever be able to identify your truck and know your were boot legging I would roll you like a bad habit.

Remember guys don't believe everything you read on the internet.
Sometimes I wonder if half the blowhards on this site are 12 year old kids staying up to late on their moms computer. -

Now you got some "Hero" thats bragging about bootlegging oversized loads. That tells you several things.
1. Ol Hero cant afford a $30 permit without hurting his bottom line.
2. His truck is easy to spot. You've seen it before. Got 6 different brands of tires and 3 different sizes, $25 beacon light that plugs into the cigarette lighter and held to his driver's side mirror with a bungee, fenders held together with rivets and duct tape.
3. Hero isnt pulling any freight that any of you would pull, and he dont run more than 25 miles from the house. -
Whats wrong with the $25 beacon light that plugs into the cigarette lighter?

I read your post and decided to think of a city in San Diego, Riverside, Orange, Los Angeles, or Santa Barbara Counties that dont issue permits for oversize loads. There are over 100 cities in those counties and I cant think of one that doesnt require a city permit. Obviously every state highway you need one, every county road in all of those counties require one.
Prizefighter, ask yourself why very few truck drivers want to go to California. If you dont know something (which you admitted) about a certain type of trucking in a certain place, dont make yourself look ignorant by commenting about how much you know about how it should be or probably is. Arguing oversize transportation rules/regs/and laws in California with a guy who has been doing it non-stop for 23 years makes no sense when you admit you've never done it. -
the one place i know for sure you need one is in Wilmighton, CA as well haul a lot of OS out of a terminal there and the local PD was stopping trucks and writting fines for no OS permit. Now LS makes you buy the local permit if you haul out of there regardlessaiwiron Thanks this. -
MJ1657 Thanks this.
