Olivetroad Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 You young fellers should get with the program and spice those trucks up a bit.Make those 4-H gals really moo and squeal hoot and hollar!I had a guy in here this morning loading up some reel trailers and he had that bling on his truck. But I also broke out the camera when he wasn't looking to get a shot at what you do not want to wear on your toe-sies when throwing chains and boomers around - he is going to lose a nail in a few days and it will NOT be the crane operators fault:I also want you to know that the last photo was while I was 20 feet away standing on the crane.I used the zoom to get the sandals photo.I was NOT standing as close behind him as it seems to your dirty mind. He was not that type, he was a good overall wearer.

lucerne tractor Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Thats a Moose bumper Vinny,(the middle picture) alot of the trucks in the Northeast have them, saves alot of repair when you hit a moose going 65. They still make a mess though. That bottom picture would be a Moose bumper around October if you got caught in that position in the woods by a moose. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24318-vinny-and-ben-need-these-on-their-trucks/#findComment-112325 Share on other sites More sharing options...
umodelnut Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 I dont think my U will go 65. It would prolly shake itself to death. I bet she would go 55-60. I still like my spokes plain.

Popular Post 41chevy Posted April 4, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted April 4, 2012 You never see those caps on a Mack. They run them on brand X units!

leversole Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Due to the coriolis effect, they would be slightly more stable...(it might take a 700 lb'er down under on the grab rail) Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24318-vinny-and-ben-need-these-on-their-trucks/#findComment-112933 Share on other sites More sharing options...
