What if it Snows?

Tim hortons is my guess

 

Happens to the best of us . i done it a time or 2 when somebody drops the trailer and cranks landing gear down all the way and then some.

 

Probably a reference to Tim Hortons in Ontario. But what do I know.

Its like a diner collided with a mcdonalds and got bricked over and glass everwhere trying to be a American dunken donuts.

 

@x1Heavy u ever high hooked trailer before?

 

Once in my lifetime. So help me. It was really stupid too. Here i am with a paper load in south Arkansas backing to it. Backing to it, backing backing back... waiting for that dam plate to clink. No clink. Heard a scrape and that was it.

 

I also made the mistake (well kinda but not really) of pulling off a 53' can load (extremely heavy) with my lil single screw. When I set it down it was like five inches lower than the rest of the trailers. I had to use a twin screw to get under it and lift it up to put the landing gear at a normal height. I knew once I started pulling off the door and the truck was bucking and bouncing trying to get moving that I was definitely in the wrong truck. Those 7 speeds don't have really low gearing to get serious weight moving.

 

Whats really stupid with that dam high hook was I was in my JBH cabover with the orientation boss telling doomsday stories of newbies being fired for smashing the power steering box and stuff in the back of the cab. Thats another reason I lived to kick myself over it allowing that trailer to get that close over the cat walk. It was just one of those stupid brain dead errors anyone could do. But a hardened driver? ha.. that'll be the day.

It was 10 years before i let it go and laugh.

Ive done battle with mud sunk trailers, high perched trailers nosey snuggle trailers, catty cornered trailers, no can get that trailer, etc. All sorts. And managed. But just that one day... with a empty brain was enough to high hook that one.

 

Someone cares enough to study it lol
Was the first thanksgiving in St. Augustine, Florida? Experts seem to think so
Not this guy

 

I saw a reefer driver for stevens transport do it one time and the reefer unit ended up in the back of the sleeper lol man i felt bad but it sure was funny as all heck. Sure would suck to do it on flatbed with 5ft or similar of overhang on front . punch a hole in the cab , have ur matress n pillows hanging from the end of the freight

 

There is however one trailer somewhere over the rainbow from Philly still in the bog at the bottom of the hill where I shoved it over the top and allowed it to come off the 5th wheel and drop. (Fall) down there. It sunk deep.

Foreman says git. Here paper. Git. Im had enough of all of you today augh, git. git git.

I got.

I wonder if the #### thing is still sunk in that hole.
