    This is what I did for EZ for nearly 15 years…. With this same trailer. There was a time I pulled it with a 1988 International.

    I’m also a Operating Engineer Local 132, I’ve been on equipment for quite a number of years lol. I’m pretty much at home with any equipment….:)

    In my mind that is straight disrespect saying that. I don't always say sir or ma'am, but a lot of times I do more so in person. I have befriended some older fellas/ladies and even though we are friends still use ma'am or sir. But pops is like an attitude in my mind especially if you just damaged someone's equipment or whatever it may be. My opinion though

    @GeminiTrucker93 I started pulling this very same lowboy that I now own in 2004. Back then I pulled it with a 1992 Ford L9000 day cab. Then we got the 88 International which was a better truck to be honest. Almost 20 years and I’m still pulling it….;)

    If side loading is the only choice, I try to find any blocks I can to take the stress off of the sides….

    God bless and Godspeed, MOBEE. This place hasn't been the same without your own presence, although, at least the jarhead was keeping us up to snuff with some kind of report. Not a believer in the no news is good news theory. We miss you, and wish you better health with love. Get better soon.

    You learn by asking questions, especially when you can’t see all that’s truly going on….

    Thank God...I hate not being able to know what other's know. The whole purpose of passing on knowledge. :) I really wondered what the 5th Kind was, other than the right against self-incrimination. :)
