Popular Post mack mhe9 Posted December 7, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted December 7, 2013 Well it's been a slow week playing with my vovlo. I get the joke.Delivering trees this old timer started telling me about his truck a 900 kw would like to sale it for 8k. Didn't see it till I drove around the other side of the building. It's been parked for a couple years.What got my attention was the mc no.Then ther was this guy. VA. Dot was not very happy about the way he was trying to enter the scale on I-95s.Got to haul a trailer or 29 to be exact.Looked like an accident but its what was left of a high speed chase and cops crashing in to the perp.Then this mack was parked at a garage in MD looks like he's getting ready to rebuild.Bet it has a lot of history. the air intake goes down to the front corner of the hood the into the eng. couldn't get to close I was already trespassing to get the pics. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Dash Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Interesting sights and finds. In retrospect, I'd say that US Xpress would've been better off to just keep going. 2 Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsb502 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 Ha, his DOT number is 5047? Mines 1505389, I was a little behind I guess, LOL, of course I have seen em way above mine lately so I guess in 10 more years mine will be a couple digits short for new guys.

Green Dash Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 The result I got was "invalid number". I put my company's number in and it worked.Either way, that is one very old number. Quote Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post mack mhe9 Posted December 8, 2013 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 8, 2013 Almost make me wish I could buy the no. Step father got sick and pasted so I kept the name and mc. That why I do business as. Charles C Hirsch trucking. Mc 169784 I know they use the dot no but I keep the MC on the side for respect for him, he workers hard for it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
