Popular Post other dog Posted November 1, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2013 I made two rounds this week. Should have been three, but the landing gear malfunction Sunday screwed that up. And it rained all week- so much for a clean truck.But I only had about 6 deadhead miles all week. Unloaded at Neville Island Tuesday morning and went 5 miles to McKees Rocks to load. Unloaded at N.B.Handy in Lynchburg and went a mile to C.R.Hudgins Plating to load for Flex-Strut in Warren, Ohio and reloaded there going back to C.R.Hudgins Plating in Lynchburg.Now I got a van load going to Chester, W.V. for Monday and a return load of firebrick in Alliance, Oh. going to Madison Heights, Va.I was going north on 79 Monday night and a Pitt-Ohio Sterling passed me like I was tied to a stump just before I got to the Neville Island exit. It was a little after 9pm. I was talking to nocluejoe on the phone at the time and we agreed that it couldn't have been green dash because he would have said something on the cb radio communicator device.Anyway, I saw various things on my journeys, like these colorful road shots.A red wrecker truck.A plane in the sky.A bird on a wire.Happy nuts on a trailer...Beaver Steel truck...beaver...Deer stands at N.B.Handy. I told them I was not a hunting expert or anything, but in my opinion they'd have a much better chance of getting a deer if these were in the woods somewhere, by the edge of a field. Nice stands though.Mack mixer trucks.Saw this steep road coming down the mountain that ended at a cliff...Cline trucks.And I saw a well tarped load in my mirror. 9 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Popular Post Green Dash Posted November 1, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2013 I was going north on 79 Monday night and a Pitt-Ohio Sterling passed me like I was tied to a stump just before I got to the Neville Island exit. It was a little after 9pm. I was talking to nocluejoe on the phone at the time and we agreed that it couldn't have been green dash because he would have said something on the cb radio communicator device.Did you get a truck number? license plate? description of the driver? brand of oil filter he was running? something?I actually know who it was as there would've been only one Sterling running north that night. We may have crossed paths near the south junction of I-70/I-79. I passed through that area around 8:30 because we are being detoured around the closed eastbound on ramp at I-70 exit 25.It's not likely you would be able to get by me unnoticed. I'm always checking out flatbeds I come across since we run many of the same routes. Since I'm out at night, I also try to give a quick scan of places you're more likely to be found i.e. rest areas, on ramps, adult book stores, the back row of truck stops, etc, etc, etc. 4 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted November 1, 2013 Author Share Posted November 1, 2013 All that may be true, however I could not get any identifying info on this truck due to it's high rate of speed. I came up 79 though, and pulled into Triad Metals on Neville Island about 9:15 I believe it was. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Just wondering what is the model of it?Oshkosh M1070 HET (Heavy Equipment Transporter) that's the new Cat Acert powered version, no emissions stuff but I still wouldn't trust it, here's a pic of our old dependable Detroit 8V92 powered HET's.

Green Dash Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 I could not get any identifying info on this truck due to it's high rate of speed.That would confirm it's who I thought it was. I'm guessing he did at least slow down to 60 mph in the 45 mph S-curves. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
