I recall a bridge in Winchester WVa I think. Anyway its core downtown. Not a poblem for me and my daycab mack with a 48 frehauf bulkhead trailer flat.

Here comes MS Carriers behind me asking about that bridge. 13.5 something if that.

Imagine a very deep \_/ with the bridge over the center. You come down at a angle, flatten out with your tractor which essentially raises the entire trailer roof so to speak before it's tandems get there, You are already climbing backup with your tractor while the trailer tandems are still coming down.

I asked him you able to drop your suspension? Yessuh, all of it.

He made it.

I spent about a month pondering how in hell do you drop a trailer suspension. The only way to do that is to undock the trailer in a dock somewhere and go away with the bobtail.

I wonder if that sly sneaking smartypants dropped his air on the tractor, stopped a second at the bridge and pulled his pig tail and his glad hands to force drag the whole thing through. I do remember it was pretty wet down there under there.

That's the only possibly way he could have made it. But I don't think he will be going that ever again.

Well it’s either that or he aired out the tires on his trailer.

How do you ignore height signs? I don't understand.

Not hard to understand. The promise of LBJ's 'Great Society' was to bring everyone UP to the same level. In practice, it took everyone down to the level of the lowest common denominator.
