  11. l've tried both Chippewas and Carolinas made in the USA logger style boots. The Redwing sales man said that they were the cowboy boot of the Northeast! Never got much more than a year out of them before l rolled them over. The ones l get now are Redwing 1412 and they last almost three years with the wide flat heel. Made in the USA for about $300.00. .....Hippy https://www.redwingshoes.com/work/mens/soft-toe/supersole-2.0-01412.html?cgid=mens-work-soft-toe

  19. At 50-75-100 ton when do we stop calling them wreckers/heavy rescue? And start calling them cranes. Might as well put a front push board on a 5 or 6 axle Liebherr. .....Hippy

  24. I work for a world wide company that has both single and tandem drive tractors. When l was told there would be a new tractor being added. They asked what l thought could be spec'd to cut operating costs. The first thing l mentioned was a lift push axle. My thoughts were 60% of the time we don't need a tandem. Your not using two sets of brakes, running four tires, turning a rearend, not paying a toll for that axle when lifted, and an improvement in fuel mileage. Being the penny pinching company they are this went on for six months asking different questions about what to order. ln the end a used Penske rental tandem rolled into the yard. Go figure! There is a local milk distributor that has a lift axel on there air ride refer trailers. The axle lifts automatically per how much weight is on the tandems. .....Hippy
