Thats why I don't want cameras. Some of my driving has been on bare dirt or deckless bridges, on the two girders that are wide as my steers and inside tires.truckdriver31 Thanks this.

I took a FFE Century and 53 trailer up to landfill twice that year. Something to remember.
I tell you what, I have no idea of percentage. It's more like recalling the old Degrees of limit in roll and pitch in flying what the vehicle should tolerate 40 degrees angle in any direction and she did. We did not do so well. But upsie goes and dump .. easy.
I snicker to wonder what dispatch would feel if all they saw was specks of scale people way down at a crazy angle..truckdriver31 Thanks this. -
It is hard to belive some of the hate on here, it was a sign fellows, not like he knocked down a day care building on top of a bunch of kids.
I took a load with a couple of fancy horse stalls once and the contractor led me in .
I had to turn in a small one lane road with some fancy radious wing walls built backwards. I stopped amd made him come back, explaining that I thought I could get in, but they may have to tear one down to get me back out, the way it was, and also ask if there was a place I could turn around in there.
It turned out I could turn around at Rusty Wallaces home shop, he had a big concrete lot in front of it, were talking nice here, then back 3/4 of a mile to where I needed to be unloaded.
I got back out, but had to use all the available grass to do it. The contractor went 100 miles away to unload the second one, and when we got there he told me that Rusty had called and wanted to know who was going to pay to have his water fixed, apparently his meter was at the end of the road out there inthe grass. lol
I told him he had more money than I did, fix it himself. the contractor just laughed and said not to worry, he would take care of it. lol
LOL. I posted this in the wrong thread.Last edited: Jun 7, 2019

It was part of regular programming growing up.
Some of it had to be explained in ways I could comprehend carefully tailored to age.
