    Well, delivering this one was interesting. We had to back through a creek with the dolly and they would then pick the beam. Had to use the excavator to pull the dolly back across the creek so we could hook it back up to the truck. On the way back to the shop to drop the trailer I got a treat to a sight that you do not see very often these days.

    I have also come across a rancher driving hundreds of sheep down the road. This was on McDonald pass on the east side near the top. They were driving probably 100 head.

    Luckily I thought to snap a photo at the last second.

    Waiting out Houston's curfew in Baytown because 4-wheelers can't be trusted to behave around oversized trucks.

    If you stacked it up you wouldn't be oversize. I know that doesn't always work, I've been known to pull my signs and flags and haul ### thru Houston curfew tho.

    Not worth breaking it down to go 30 miles though.

    I understand I was really just being a smart ###. How much well is in that trailer looks fairly long

    I was really just being a smart 4$$ myself, they can train a monkey to do just about anything but they can't train most 4-wheelers how to drive.

    31' in the well, trailer & stinger 75', 102' overall with tractor.

    Was driving cattle over a pass in Canada. Had a big rig move going by. Kept em in the ditch other than the stupid calf that wanted to play tag eith the front of the trucks. The drivers got a kick out of watching me rope it and lead it in front of me like a dog.
     
    tsavory Thanks this.
