justincase Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 During mud season we load close to the road and that week you had your excitement I was loading under wires and your post reminded me to be careful Thanks Hatcity Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24892-our-titan-to-be-built/#findComment-117373 Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatcity Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 I do alot of work for the garbage company. Bulk pick up of vegetative debris.I work around wires all the time. I usually drop the boom before driving though.first few days working after that, I was so overly cautious, i was forgetting other things.Like shifting and stuff. Relax and just pay attention.Nice thing with that boom, 360 rotation, so I can pick under wires easier Quote Success is only a stones throw away.................................................................for a Palestinian Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24892-our-titan-to-be-built/#findComment-117379 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My U model I think gets like 8 miles per gallon. She takes a ton of oil too. I had the hood up with both fenders filled with empty quart oil bottles. I ran out of room on the right fender so I had to throw them over to the other fender.

justincase Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Yup Still Mackless. On the hunt. Logtruckman's family has some perfect candidates but I have to make sure I can make the payments first. I am looking at a 2002 RB as well cab and chassis that I can build the way I want. Issue with that truck is Canadian spread rear axle is hard on sharp turns jockeying around. We will see I am not in a big hurry because I won't need the truck until Fall for the moose hunt. (Just kidding). I also found a CL with a serco loader in Mississippi but not sure how I could make that happen. I Like hunting for trucks but I don't like when they are 2000 miles away.

justincase Posted May 13, 2012 Share Posted May 13, 2012 Rob I might go that route. If I get serious about the CL down south I figured I might post to see if someone could look at it for me. It sure would be cheaper than a plane ride. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/24892-our-titan-to-be-built/#findComment-119045 Share on other sites More sharing options...
