    I know you’re from Arkansas but there’s something funny about you being out east in the good ol’ rolling green hills. :p

    Kinda like me whenever I’m out in your country or @sawmill territory...

    “I can see for miles and miles and miles and holy cow that’s a MOUNTAIN back thar” :eek::eek:

    I had a 1968 ford 5000 diesel with a select-o-speed transmission. The SOS transmission used an "inching pedal" in place of the clutch pedal, so "riding" the clutch to hook stuff up was not an issue.

    That is a great view and a pretty truck but those ramps would drive me crazy, guess you get use to them.

    I wonder if he checked his height...

    Knowing @BigBob410 and his outlaw tendencies it may not be under 13’-6”...

    Those parking lots got us all fooled. Their more overheight than some of the specialized haulers on here :);)

    Got unloaded here in southern AL. No loads hardly at all. So here I am sittin' empty and the agent calls wanting to know what I'm looking for. A brief chat and he explains that since the hurricane, everything is just dead, a lot of places still trying to get back up and running.

    So I let him talk me into a load out to UT, near SLC. Not the direction me or my little truck want to go, but at least it beats doing nothing. Doesn't load till Friday though, in FL. Not much around for good parking either.

    Think I'm gonna invent an imaginary co-driver so there'll be somebody to talk to.
