Mackdaddy2030 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Had another one lay over on 88 in Curran's section. This time total driver error.I guess he came in from the live lane onto the job, and was driving in the dead lane. Wasn't paying attention and got the truck too far over and fell off the 3' plus core out for the shoulder.It was one of the Gomez trucks. And last week one of his drivers was working for Curran in McHenry and when he got to the job he got out of the truck and forgot to set the brakes. And then it rolled into the back of another truck.Think he might get dropped from his insurance. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/101/#findComment-303720 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post PeterMack Posted September 21, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted September 21, 2015 This weekend Macknutt(aka Mike) and Joe K had a little truck show/party at their shop. Got a heck of alot of trucks to showup for a word of mouth, kinda last minute show. Was awesome! A ton of cool rides showed up, one of which was James MillersSuperliner. I'm sure most of you remember awhile back I posted pictures of a Superliner getting the cab and hood removed.This is the truck they went on, bumper was also included. He said he had this truck back together in a weekend! He ran itawhile and then gave it a repaint and a touch up. The inside was immaculate. Real nice guy. He had some pictures on hisphone of the truck sitting out on Navy Pier while he was making a delivery. So the old Superliner did not die in vein. Wentto a good home. I added the before and after pics for those who don't remember. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/28785-chicago-r-models/page/101/#findComment-304579 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackdaddy2030 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 bugger me he wont do that againWell, maybe not again, but this is the third truck of his to burn up. I guess one burnt in a shop fire and he also hit a power line before.
