    hahahahahahahahah, Another guy (no really, it wasn't me) same deal with double T's, they wanted us to turn left into the site and it's a long narrow road right next to the construction trailer. he was before me, so he turns left and WIPES OUT THE WINDOWS AND TOP OF THE CONSTRUCTION TRAILER with the right side front overhang. (he was never going to make the turn anyway, way too much off track with the extended trailer)

    After they unfubar'd that, I got to go right and back up. (which was by far the smarter move, tons of room)

    Always remember "nope, can't do it, not going to do it, find another way Mr Site Guy, cuz it's my butt"

    Lol yep ive got burned on them 60fters as well. Except for me it was the back overhang. Had a load of rebar , the big stuff like size 11 or whatever it is. Well i was backing up at the truck stop and totally forgot i had overhang until i went to do my post trip and found i had speared the trash can onto the end of my rebar and there was trash everywhere LOL . Man i about fell on the ground laughing so hard, luckily nobody saw so it never happened:D

    Not just Az. There are eleven states with permitless carry. Some either concealed or open carry.
    And since the pandemic and then the troubles started there have been more than 2 millions guns sold to first time gun owners.
    Things might get real western before long.

    Ok so one more trick for the week. A guy was headed up to portland and happened to fuel at the same truck stop as us. Turns out he didn't have the hours to make it to portland. So we switched loads and repowered his. 20200725_172812_HDR~2.jpg 20200725_153955.jpg

    Bear that in mind I did not secure this load. This is the CYA shot just incase. We retarped it cause his tarps werent so good. Load of tile.

    He is going to sit and do a 34. Meanwhile we will continue to Portland. Switched in Patterson, CA. Our original load was going just a bit more North to Tracy. 20200725_172812_HDR~2.jpg 20200725_153955.jpg

    Another company driver. I don't lease. The 680s are our new fleet truck. They are going away from the shakers. We switched trailers.
