    I suppose that's one way to get past those wheels that lock up when they're taken out of the parking lot.

    He shouldn't have any problems at the scale with 7 axles.

    :(

    The sign above it 'Qualified Driver's'.... For the truck or the cart?.... 208 is an Idaho Area Code, if I recall correctly... Economy must be in shambles. Can't find good cart boys; gotta hire a trucking company to do it. Shame.
     
    Feedman and not4hire Thank this.

    Last set of axles will put him over Bridge Law.... gonna need a permit.... maybe he can schooch the cart ahead of the tandems? Bind it up with his sagging air lines? Seems more legit that way.

    Broke my arm at 12 with a friend of mine, we busted out of the house in the middle of the night got hungry went to the store shopping, come out and realize we bought so much food that we couldn't carry it back...... off to the house with a cart LOL. Half way home we came upon one of the hills near our house and were tired of pushing the #### thing, so what does two dumb ### teenagers do? One on the back (he faired off much better then I did...) my dumb ### inside the basket with food on my lap LOL down the hill we go. Faired off fairly well at first till we hit one of the cross streets, we caught air landed and then things went south very quickly LOL ended up going into a curb and the law of physics took over from there.


    Fast forward to what 20 years later? My nephew does #### near the exact same thing.... guess the apple don't fall to far from the tree. I feel for my fiance, she is really in for a helluva ride when we have kids LOL.
