Hay can I pass?

I wanna see him back that train up!

One more trailer and he wouldn't have had to leave any bales in the field.

Saw this work of art in Gila Bend yesterday. Tacoma stuffed in a little box truck toying another toy. All had Oregon plates, betting heading south of the border.

USMC Gunny I stopped in Gila Bend for some diesel a few years ago. In the twenty minutes I was there, I saw quite the diverse group of folks roll in and out....including one brand new GMC, lifted sky high, huge wheels, blasting mariachi music. Guy hopped out like he owned the place....music still blasting. Quite the sight. Interesting place to say the least.

Bonus points for having the GN hitch aft of axle.

The whole series is great. It's kind of remarkable what you can do with what's basically a small MDT with 100hp if you throw literally every trick in the book thrown at it and give up any hope of traveling beyond 30mph or so.

Also that 5th wheel setup is so comically over complicated and asinine.

"hmm did I loaded that last trailer, whatever?"

take a long, wide turn

look at the last trailer without getting out

"looks good to me"

take a deep run into field & turn around to straighten everything out to exit the field

Looks like it's ghey too. Maybe they're meeting sketchy peeps in the middle of the night selling their load.

 

[Pocahontas]

My guess would be headed up from Mexico on the dirt bike picking up everything as they go before heading back. Probably fine payload but damn if it doesn’t look sketchy.

Pocahontas got 11k between hitch pin and rear trailer tires.

I see that stuff almost daily driving west on I10 & I20 heading back to Mexico. If you or I tried that the DOT would have the truck(s) impounded and we'd be in cuffs. Those Mexican truck convoys blow right past weigh stations clearly overloaded and the DOT doesn't even blink.

Back when men were men and hydraulic systems ran at 600psi.

No DOT wants those piles of shit in their weigh station forever. Mexicans will just walk away and leave it there.

Asset forfeiture, call a scrapper and split the money!

That's what they'd do if the driver was white.

Yup

If there was easy loot.

I bet that took a while to dump!

My 11’ butterfly valves run at 990 psi, compressor at 1008.

Tell me more about the hydro systems you maintain


Class is waiting
