maybe its the way the pic is angled but I think it looks way bigger than my dad's 6 looks on a lowboy. Cool pic anyhow.

The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by the people who vote for a living.

The government can only "give" someone what they first take from another.

CCHAINS USED ON MOVE WERE 13mm TRANSPORT CHAIN WITH GRAB HOOKS RATED LOAD 6.7 TON EACH WITH RATCHET TURN BUCKLES

MACHINE SAT ON TIMBER DECKING

8 CHAINS USED GIVING LASHING CAPACITY ALONE OF 53.6 TON WITHOUT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT FRICTION

CHAIN POSITIONS 2 ON BLADE

2 ON TOW HITCH

4 ON MACHINE CROSS PULLED

I THINK THAT WAS ENOUGH BETTER TO BE ON SAFE SIDE EASER TO PUT MORE ON THAN PICK UP OFF SIDE OFF ROAD

Would you describe that dozer as being "SMICK"? I still can't get anyone on here to tell me what that means..........

"Silly, (or Stupid) Motherfucker I Couldn't Kill" is what I've always heard.

Olive, Don't you speak English?

I try and speak the local dialect, but da wife won't let me. She had some weird idea that we should use proper english in the home. She gave "SMICK" a big thumbs down.

After getting her expert opinion on SMICK, I then got caught licking my knife and of course the kiddos started to copy it. I had to lick it, who wants the ketchup off scrambled eggs on your pancakes?

Wife took away my syrup privileges..
