    No idea, just pulled it outta my butt.



    My mother and a good friend of mine are both in private sector manufacturing for DOD and its definitely not about cost cutting from the way they tell it. I think most of the savings was on my pay. LOL

    I’d take that bet. Looks like everything is secure on the top layer.

    Looks and is arent always the case. As I said earlier, I watched parts of the entire load bouncing around as he crossed the parking lot.

    That's a wee more than I'd be comfortable with on a gooseneck lol. If I'm remembering correctly that should be a 25k plus machine. Closer to 28-29. A lil Takeuchi 260 I think was the number was a 13k machine.

    Yea right at 29-30k depending on the boom. Plus trailer and gear. I really wish DOT would focus more on this stuff and those retatds pulling 2-3 vehicles with a compact sedan to Mexico. Those a real dangers.

    At least it's a tri-axle. That's an F-450, too. Not that I'd want to do it, but at least he has slightly better than marginal brakes.

    We had a guy who pulled a 6 car trailer with one, running out of our ramp. All I can say about that is NOT ME!
