    I like the old heavy haul international 9900i's they have in the yard. Sleeper is small, but they look good. I'll trade my condo for one.

    I have no idea...seen it while i was waiting for the trailer washbay in mrshfield to get fixed....it looks like the fire originated in the engine compartment when i looked closer...but i am not an fire forensic guy.... but considering there were parts of the radiator and engine block melted its a pretty good bet....

    IS the rollover still sitting there? This was in the yard last week. Didn't see the chassis anywhere. :biggrin_25522:

    From what I heard, a new driver coming out of a farm on a back road. Turned out of the farmers place with a load of hay. Turned too sharp and tandems started pulling him in the ditch, he panicked and floored it the other way. That caused him to go into the other ditch and then the hay took over and rolled him. He was on his side and the farmer came out and started picking up his hay and putting it back in his barn. :biggrin_2559:

    Yup its still there....along with the prostar that has front end damage from what looks like a head on ditch encounter.....I hear but didn't look...that out by the flatbed relay building there are a couple more gnarly looking trucks due to NOOBs doing something stupid and then panicking.............sounds like Roehl needs to overhaul the training program again to give guys MORE training rather than less...

    I agree bro. Its pretty much getting to where if you can partially shift, see a few signs, and have a pulse they'll pass you after your trainer. They try to weed out people in orientation who don't make the cut, but its so little time that a few get through.
