Well it really doesn’t look like it’s been beat to death I don’t remember ever seeing a day cab -

I am hoping most of them are out of work soon $300,000 a year to do nothing now where else you’re gonna find a job like that

It’s been done time after time mine used to be a dump truck. I took the body off a long time ago.

My God, those guys all look like thugs ha ha thanks for that union hasn’t been the same ever since we’ve lost him

Aaaaaaaaaaaa. The good old days when everybody ran a radio you could just yell out for him and he would come up after you usually used to hang around the west bound side. That was the steepest part.

CF also used to keep a pusher truck on donner pass for those of us that were chained up with doubles and still spinning out it might have been an all wheel drive but it had a huge cement block on the frame

In California we were not allowed to wash our truck with the hose I got hollowed at one time in Fontana for trying to wash some slop off the sides after running through a bunch of snow storm and the mechanic was telling me when the truck washers do thier fleet they all have to be moved to one spot and when they finish all the water has to be vacuumed up into this huge tank….. like wow man what a country

Frankly, I’m glad I’m done with all that all I gotta do now is worry about getting the DM out of my yard ha ha

That’s just creepy downhill you don’t have a whole lot of choices like you said air hits the first box doesn’t help you at all
-
But sometimes you can go flying off the hill and all of a sudden the back one starts swinging like mad and you’re scared that it’s gonna flip over and you’re afraid to touch anything even the brakes and prior to dropping up the hill, it was pulling straight as a narrow. That’s the weird part.
-
I’ve taken this one around 90 miles an hour downhill a few times it’s surprising if you’ve got a set that’s not pulling that straight you go flying down a hill and all that wind resistance seems to hold everything a little straighter

Yes, he drove it home that same truck was for sale for way more than that a while back he just about stole it. I don’t know how he got it so cheap. I don’t think he knows either. -
