    I was just looking at the heavy haul thread.
    I take it all back when I said here before I specialize in heavy haul.
    After seeing the loads others pull, mine are like Mickey mouse in comparison to the big guys loads.
    Next time I run across the scales at something like a measly 240k or 260k lbs or whatever, before I think well yes this really is heavy, I will remember that thread, and think this is virtually like a feather.
    I'm humbled!

    Oh please...
    Heavy haul?
    Does anyone think they actually chain down anything when they’re too lazy to remove the “oversize load” sign when they’re empty?
    I bet their chains are made of plastic

    Does anyone know if I can load a Cat D11 on a step deck? RGN's are too expensive and I want to get some of that sweet, sweet heavy haul money.

    Not that I have anything against opening the season just a little early, this might be just a little to early — that is if I had any sort of knowledge about that sort of thing

    If you put them on sideways like we do then you can haul 2 of them.

    Careful @tucker. The post that got banned from #5 included me asking why they leave their flashing yellow lights on while MT and parked at a truck stop. It was an actual question.

    I will add, that to me, leaving those lights on while MT draws a comparison to wearing your Bluetooth headset while on the toilet, or in extreme cases taking your 30 at a fuel island. Hahahahaha! :D
