Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Had to fix the roof on the home barn after high wind and did not have enough staging so I used the Superliner. Worked out well....and the wife said I didn't need another truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 See, she don't know as much as she thinks she does; (and don't you dare tell her I said that).Same thing I've done in the past.You need a blue one for the other side.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Shawn Barrett Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Good old fashioned American ingenuity Now tack up the roofing all the way across, turn the truck parallel to the barn, have your wife put it in lo and get the nail gun......bang bang bang bang right down the line. Reverse bang bang bang bang. Forward bang bang bang.....you get the idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olivetroad Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Good thunking! But you missed the chance to have justification to go buy a Mack bucket truck or better yet a Mack crane.Tim goes to house after looking at one loose shingle: "Honey, I really hate to do it, but the ole barn you love so much is about to fall over! The high winds done blowed her clean sideways off her rocker. I just gotta go buy that DM with the National 880 crane I saw for sale the other day. Then I would be cooler than that Backer boy out there in Missouri. His crane is on a FORD! Time is wastin, I gotta buy that crane!'"Wifey responds: "Well, okay baby, if you really need it, they you just go ahead and do what you think is best, I want you to make all the decisions around here from now on. I really love that barn ever since we were dating and we went for a walk that time up to the hay mow..........................." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Barrett Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Ahh that right tool for the job stuff is overrated. This redneck stuff is more fun to watch. But I'd buy another Mack sure.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 The wind has been really bad this year. It was blowing me around in W.V. last week, that with a flatbed and low profile load of steel. I haven't heard of any trucks being blown over or anything but it's the worst i've ever seen in these parts. They even had wind advisory signs on I-64, I thought i'd taken a wrong turn and ended up in Wyoming. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Timothy Maikshilo Posted March 5, 2012 Author Share Posted March 5, 2012 Thanks guys for the positive feed back. Justified me buying this ole truck and the plan is to replace the lose nails with screws all the way across. As for the Ford crane, she only lets me get Macks.....sorry Olive. It also has been wicked windy here in the north east kingdom. Been tacking sheds and barn roofs everywhere. Heck I could go into business with a whole fleet of old Macks with staging on them......HHHMMM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
