Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

It was a load of car and utility trailers and tied down with 2 in straps, BUT it had 39 straps on it, anywhere a strap could go without damaging a fender was already covered. lol

He was just giving me a hard time because I had bested him, telling him for over an hour that he needed to learn the law, before he tried to shut a truck down.

All that said, the way the law reads, without the trailers being banded together, the load really did need more straps technically.

It all started because I had lost my front half of fender and bumper, so I didn't have any headlight or turn signal on that side. The scale master had me come in , so he could ask if I was going to drive at night. lol, it is january in Alaska, but no I will park. Drake was back in his office and recognized my voice, we heard that as long as I had low beam on one side I was good to go, so I told him I had low, high and my offroad light too. just curiosity, but he came out to BS and gawk at the damage and hear the story of what happened.
He noticed I didn't have a headache rack and tried to shut me down, in the middle of nowhere Alaska, until I got a headache rack. lol
this was just a month or so after they had changed the headache rack and secuement laws. lol

 

Lol, coming from the w9 to a VNL or VHD, you would never go back...

 

FWIW, that is an AAV.. USMC

 

Getting close to that time of year

 

Awww come on, I remember a few trips in Michigan where i thought the roads were in worse shape than on MSR Michigan.

 

You hush.

 

Ha ha, we have had a volvo dealer here for a few years now, and it is owned by a trucking company,
Now that said, there is not one single volvo on the haul road hauling north, it do make a guy wonder why. lol

 

I is READY. lol

 

I would imagine parts/service availability.
And the fact that all the cool kids have long noses.. lol
Hell I fell for it. And I will be going back to a Volvo with the next purchase.

 

Well I can tell you they have the services and can get all the parts they want. My wife worksthere and I can get parts for my kw from them cheaper than I can at the KW dealer, they just wont take it, same as most other slope nosed trucks. T 800's do fine, but there is lawsuits over the slope nosed petes busting the cabs up and there has only been a handfull of the new ones on the road.
