mack mhe9 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 The Superliner is lookin sweet with the chrome and visor back on it. I talked to Russo this week in Lavergne TN at the Mack dealer he said he got your MH frame to redo his RW. He says he's gonna holler at me on his next trip so we can get some pics of the two Superdogs together.Hope that frames doing him well. That's a big task he's taking on.

JTFormula Posted July 14, 2013 Author Share Posted July 14, 2013 Mack Mhe9. - I've always dug your set up. Drop deck with a nice set of ramps is perfect. Gives you many options for loads you can't do with a flatbed.

I showed these pictures to a car carrier buddy of mine. He said there's a lot of those clowns out there. He said DOT is going to have a field day with this driver.

JTFormula Posted July 18, 2013 Author Share Posted July 18, 2013 Went to Bordentown today to pick up a 1973 Pontiac Grandville low rider pimp wagon we bought at the auction. I followed this moron into the truck loading area. The only strap he had on the load was the left rear tire strap you see in the picture. THAT'S IT! The sad thing is these are the assholes who are the competition with non commercial plates, no cargo insurance, no DOT #, no MC #, and this is how they haul shit. Yet the brokers/dealers say "well I can get it done cheaper from this guy". No wonder why, they aren't legal! 1 Quote ~ JT Burkard ~ AKA Sweaty Mackwww.jtresto.com www.wickedreputation.netwww.jonathanthomasmotorcars.com Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31908-this-is-why-you-dont-let-customers-book-shippers/page/2/#findComment-194640 Share on other sites More sharing options...
staxx Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I use to haul some crazy stuff but I was always legal .

Freightrain Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I knew a guy that owned a corner car lot, he hauled his "race car/hot rod" 1978 Trans Am on an open trailer with NO straps. He would pull it on and put'r in park. Good enough for him!!! He was not around very long and don't know what ever became of him.We also cringed because he put a small block chebby in that Pontiac. Ugh the tragedy. Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Ugh the tragedy.Chevy in a Pontiac? That explains it all. As a Trans Am guy myself I cringe at the thought. I have a 455 for my Formula. My 78 Trans Am was basically stock with a 400 under the hood.

TozziWelding Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 No commercial plates piss me off, I give the state alot of money every year for mine, when I see some guy obviously working out of his truck with passenger plates that cost $45 for 2 years just aggravates the shit out of me, Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31908-this-is-why-you-dont-let-customers-book-shippers/page/2/#findComment-194719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
