ws721 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 LOL. Guess you don't have a 13'6" height restriction either. Don't you just love auction moves?! I once got a call from a Ford tractor dealer down in Ma that we hauled for. They sent me up to Presque Isle, Me with just a serial number. When we got there it was a riding lawnmower! Lot of room left over on my 48' drop. Oh well, its all by the mile. 2 Quote Remember if it's got a hood it's no good!

RowdyRebel Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Ever since getting this here smart phone, them upside down pics don't bother me...easy to flip the phone around. The Q10 has a square screen, so it doesn't try to rotate the contents of the screen to maintain the upsidedownedness of the pics. Only thing I DON'T like is no smilies and I can't quote a previous post. Cuts & pastes are also a PITA...but I've always got it with me when I get bored.

rsb502 Posted December 14, 2013 Share Posted December 14, 2013 Its amazing how you can load things when you want to, Staxx was a little scared loading the white R on top of the Red R, especially when it tried to slide off the car ramps from the trailer up to the tires on the other truck twice! I had more chain on these two to keep em there than a trackhoe, and had the ramps chained out at an angle since the white truck hung over a bit too far to get em all the way up. 2 Quote "Any Society that would give up a little LIBERTY to gain a little SECURITY will Deserve Neither and LOSE BOTH" -Benjamin Franklin"If your gonna be STUPID, you gotta be TOUGH" "You cant always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you get what you need" Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/33885-wrong-sizes/#findComment-221464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
