    Didn’t @GYPSY65 need help converting a van to a container or something.

    I really hope he finds this thread before he goes spending all his money on a saws all and whatnot.

    It’s not hard at all to rip the tandems out

    They’re made to be as light weight as possible. Just strong enough to do its job and handle hard braking applications.

    i hope that if he "IS" an o/o, his insurance gets jacked up so high, he'll never be able to get insurance anywhere. it's on video, so i'd be certain the private property he destroyed will file a police report on him for "hit and run", leaving the scene of an accident, with damages", and file a claim against his insurance company.

    and if he is a company driver??

    i'd black ball him, by informing ANYONE calling for a reference on him.

    I'd say his insurance should do a good job of firing him.

    I've lost my cool a time or two. Thrown a hammer or a ratchet that wasn't working properly. Once I even completely destroyed a Lincoln electric grease gun, slamming it repeatedly to the floor so it would never be mistaken for a grease gun again.
    But dang, this is a whole new level.
    Maybe his boss told him to slide the tandems or he's fired

    There is no requirement that he report it to his insurance company. Or his boss report it if it is an employee.

    This behavior is so bizarre, those of us who read and participate in this forum have a difficult time wrapping our head around it.
    I know I do.
    The way these people think, either the owner of the equipment or the driver astound us everyday.
    There is no end to the bad judgements these people make.

    Someone with that little self control doesn't have the cash saved up to buy himself a new trailer or pay to have that one fixed.

    I’ve seen a lot of dumb stuff but this seems so over the top that it looks like it was on purpose
    Or hope so!!

    I’m thinking this would even make a FedEx,Amazon Prime and a Swift driver blush and say: “d a m n son!!”
