Popular Post other dog Posted September 7, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted September 7, 2013 I only made one trip this week, went to Shreveport La. with a machine, actually it was some kind of pump. It was 10 feet high so it had to be in an enclosed drop deck trailer.I noticed a spider web running from the mirror to the fender Tuesday...didn't see this huge ass spider until Thursday morning. I sprayed window cleaner up in there to kill it, but it made another appearance yesterday. I'll spray ether in there Monday morning, I do not like spiders!That's the bad part of pulling a Conestoga, they're so wide you can't see much out of the mirrors.I saw the Mississippi River along the way.There's a log truck over there on a dirt road raising the dust cloud.Combines in the field.Unloading in Shreveport.Girls in cars of the week-Saw this nice looking Mack in Meridian, Ms. on the way back......driven by none other than nocluejoe66 himself! We were headed in opposite directions, but we stopped and broke bread in Meridian.He even paid for my meal- thanks Joe!I passed by Chunky, and crossed the Chunky River, but I did not stop there.Got a newfangled secret spy camera installed in the truck Monday.The load going down paid both ways, but I stopped in McMinnville, Tn. on the way back and picked up some machine tools for N.B.Handy in Lynchburg.The long and winding straight road.Tennessee road shots.Saw this accident east of Knoxville. Story on the cb was that a car that was getting off at the exit cut in front of the truck from the left lane to get off and the truck driver had to swerve to keep from hitting the car and rolled it over. 8 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

r686st Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 The big leg gal has a cup in her cupholder with my schools logo on it. It's the logo for Louisiana Tech University in Ruston, LA(Bulldogs). I'm sure she's a student/alumni no doubt. It's neat to see you guys coming closer my way and I like many of you look forward to this weekly post.

Your right arm know what to do not shifting as much.Don't answer that!Well, yeah, I kept it busy j....never mind...DOH!!Q: What time is it when you get a spider web on your mirror arm?A: Time to get your truck's speed turned up.What does the Conestoga increase your width to? They do look a bit wide, I'm surprised the Width Police don't require a permit for those.I'd like to meet NoClueJoe66 and get sum free grub. He seems like a nice guy.You're always posting pictures of Winfall wimmin and you didn't get a single shot of Chunky wimmin. I WANT PICS OF CHUNKY WIMMIN!!Call me uncaring or insensitive, but if somone cuts me off like that they're going down with me.Nice scenery.

Dougsr Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 I rode my Harley to Shreveport today. I had to take my wife up there to get her car out of the shop. Yes it was a Volvo. Never herd of an alternator telling a car to shut down. It just stopped like you turned the key off. The battery was hot and everything.

I WANT PICS OF CHUNKY WIMMIN!!Call me uncaring or insensitive, but if somone cuts me off like that they're going down with me.The sides on them run in a rail outside of the trailer rubrail, so it must be about 2" extra on each side. Joe is indeed a very nice guy- he told me "I'm buying this time, git whatever you want, long as it ain't over $4"...so I had a glass of water and a toothpick.uh...OK-Absolutely- you've got to at least get a piece of them!..4 wheelers that cut you off that is, not necessarily chunky wimmens. 2 Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

slpwlker Posted September 7, 2013 Share Posted September 7, 2013 Conestogas are 9' wide. No permit needed as it is for securement purposes and safey. But do not load 9 wide and try to get away with it without a permit 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/32664-pictures-of-the-week/#findComment-204400 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Passenger side windshield is gone.The driver was not hurt.Western Star and a spread axle reefer, probably a nice rig. Could've even been an O/O who's now out of business.My conestoga is 106 wideThat's what I was thinking. I've been behind 102"s with rolling tarps and the mirrors were partially blocked like Tom's.
