    LOL...I always feel safer on a logging road than I do on the highway.
    At least on the logging road people usually know what they're doing, know the rules, and watch out for each other.
    If they don't they're usually not around very long.

    Another thing to consider when driving water truck in Northern California is that generally the water truck is a pile of ****

    Nah, we like to call them " a truck for a man who likes a challenge".
    Our water trucks are safe...but you couldn't call them fancy. They live a hard life. They're all former road trucks and they show their age. We keep good brakes and tires on them and everything works but they won't win any beauty contests,
     
    okiedokie, Rugerfan and AModelCat Thank this.

    You will get yelled and screamed at over the CB, no matter what you do, it will be wrong. Is it Emerson Logging?

    Trying to figure out who has their own water trucks. Maybe green diamond? SPI doesn’t use their own as far as I know

    If the log trucks mark up the paved road that they pull out on you cant understand ``what yelling is all about, you will be the man that washes off the mud with a broom?

    He's going to work for a gypo.

    And before anybody takes offense....gypo is an old time logging word for an independent logger or truck owner.
    It's not a derogatory term.
