Big Loads - Post Photos

In NY I am sure it has to do with being able to be seen from front and or side of the vehicle. I mean my LED tail lights can flash super fast(strobe), and not be a violation. YMMV :smt101

 

I appreciate the input. Ya. Over the years been a bit more pissed off at how drivers don't see you. "Cause they don't care"

I'm at a point to stop taking the calls for "on road drops"

I installed 4 LED Lights with amber covers.
It makes loading and unloading without using a flashlight in hand.

Be safe guys. And Thank you

 

It doesn't matter what you have for lights/color...we had a 19'W load being police escorted in IA about 8/9yrs ago...he got hit! Yes, even with the police escort!

oh yeah, and he was stopped, waiting for the police to close the bridge. Car went around the cop and hit the load, nope, not kidding! (You can't fix stupid. Not with duct tape, a sign, or even red & blue lights)

 

These are not what one wants to haul every day................ However, it DOES pay to do what nobody else wants to. The CAT dealer was my big customer so I hauled these into their shop from 3 different landfills. The prongs of this type were not to hard on the deck, but the pointed ones, different story. I used 3 layers of conveyor belt for them. 14'6" wide, 15'6" high , aprox 37 tons.

 

That's a load for a beam if I have ever seen one!

 

That's why you ordering a beam insert for your new trl. right.lol

 

Riiiiiggghhhht

How much work do you want me to do? All of it?

As a matter of fact I went back to a flat deck with 9' wide axles

Had a big scare yesterday on the insurance quote

 

we use two layers of three quarter inch plywood or something like that

 

Oh yea I bet your insurance costs really went up.
Forgot to check on that I take it or just put it off at the time.
How is the puppy doing, hope she is better.

 

No I have been waiting on a response for 2 weeks.

The first number had it going up by 15k but after a phone call and a recheck only going up about 3-4k

On the puppy front, we went back to the vet today. Platelet count after a week of heavy drug treatment back in the normal range. So looking better for my girl! She has a ways to go though with ongoing drug treatment. She lost 7 lbs from last week so all is not well. But more hope today for a positive outcome
