Too big of a hurry

We use to take those drilling rigs all through these hill here in WV in the mines. A D7 hooked to front in most cases. Down in Naugatuck, WV I had a 650 Deere in front, and a 750 Deere up the hill with a winch line across the Derrick and down to the frame to keep from turning over. I’m at a loss of words when I see a truck in this position on level ground…..

 

I loved every J&L that I ever unloaded. Butler and Stephens not so much, but our J&Ls always unloaded quickly.

And that "driver" is lucky he didn't damage his discharge piping / hopper tees / product valves / flow cones.

 

Ironic, considering how maddeningly slow they drive on the freeway.

 

I had to pull one a couple times and they sure seemed to be a lot slower than the Mac I usually pulled. To me they seemed like a pain to get the hoppers empty with the food grade we hauled. And they weren’t as easy to wash out.
