there was the drive isle between the rows of parked bobtails at least 4 trucks wide and he had more than 100 yds, it was probably closer to 200 yds, to pull up straight in and then back straight into his door.... i pulled in and put it in reverse and backed straight into my door in one shot. no problem. so i guess you could say he had miles of room and 3 doors on each side of his with no trucks parked there... that was my entertainment for the evening lol....

That sounds like a hole that should have been easy as bell to set up for

yup a trained chimp from the san diego zoo, could pulled that one off in one shot , left turn straighten up and back straight into the door.... I watch him start with #### near a u turn to the left then back to the right at a 45 degree angle and try jacking it into the door , ok i expected him to pull up once then to straighten out and finish backing straight in.... Noooooooo this guy almost takes the fender off the kw next to me and the kid still has three empty doors to the right of the kw and to the left of his door ..... His co or trainer was outside micro managing him which made it worse , but this guy had absolutely no clue what he was doing at all..... He was praying that by putting the truck in reverse it would happen all by itself i guess....he had near a square mile of room to do it in too.....lol ok well i am exageratting that part.... Haha

Sounds like an England driver

,
i would have yanked his cdl after seeing that display of skill....then sent him to jimroy's school of truck driving..... Hell , thats what i should do is open a truck driving school, and actually teach these kids to drive and be an actual truck driver upon graduation , not to only pass a dmv skills test.NavigatorWife, LaBubba and Bjv1981 Thank this. -

Didn't secure a trailer door properly while backing up to a dock. The wind blew it just perfectly in line with the trailer. Yea those aluminum hinges don't hold up to the weight of the truck pressing on the door against a building. Broke everyone of them and the door came off.

You mean crank the trailer up, the dollies were already down. Your lucky, when I did this, it was a loaded trailer.
My micro ProStar does that all the time, when backing in with a slight upgrade.
Thanks, so I never ripped out my air lines.
I thought this thread was to make fun of our selves.bbqguy, DoneYourWay, davetiow and 2 others Thank this.
