Post flatbed load photos here V2.0

You can leave the B 61 at my gate if you like. My first introduction to American trucks, in Australia, and chased by 3 trailers full of cows.
When I asked for a job the Boss said (I thought) have you driven a twin steer? What I discovered when I climbed aboard was that his unique way of copying my native language was 'have you driven a twin stick?'

How hard can it be, got 2 hands haven't I, and an elbow to manage the wheel?
Job done.

 

@Diesel Dave u ever delivered coils to verco fontana? Wondering if they will get mad if i show up without tarp.. to dam hot for that nonsense

 

Tell 'em you've just unwrapped it, to save their precious time.

 

Not a good way to start an early Friday morning.

 

Blow out number 2 40 miles later Double coin junk

 

Easy friday load

 

Think positive thoughts, it could have been a steer.
Always look on the bright side of life de dum......Monty Python.

 

Well i guess i aint much of an outlaw, ended up tarping the coils when the sun went down and it cooled off. Then reloaded the same load i did last friday from la to washington. I am wore out from all the tarping this week

 

Found out later during the day, the carrier bought a batch of brand new trailer(10) a few years ago, came brand new everything, even the tires were new BUT, the casing were older but virgin rubber, I looked at the manufacturer code and as of this year, the casing were from 2015 and 2017, the trailers are 2023’s. They pulled a fast one.

 

Monday back to hauling the Oversized 10’ wide pipe loads (3 a day). Monday thru Thursday. Today was a legal load with all the tire issues to San Diego, but the day and week is over, time to chill.
