Popular Post 85snowdog Posted February 23, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 23, 2014 I'm just catching up on some drinking time, and thought I would download a short video of my dogs.I know I have a short history with Mack , compared to most here. But I think I have almost the same passion.I sure don't have the same knowledge. That I have discovered reading post.I don't have many photos because it seems if you don't have a Pete or KW no one wants to see….. But you all.Thanks again for having me aboard. P.S. - I don't know if this will work, if it doesn't I will try again…….And I hope its the right video!http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=a8nUERMfhM8 8 Quote Keith Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34793-85-snowdog-my-story/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhead204 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 NICE IRON but I have one question, with the drop axle that far forward aren't you light on the steer axle?

85snowdog Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 NICE IRON but I have one question, with the drop axle that far forward aren't you light on the steer axle? Thanks,about the axle weights. It was setup for the maximum Ontario axle weight laws in 1986. I don't know the specific details of the axle spacing. All I can say is it must be right, because there have never been any issues at inspection stations…. Soon it won't matter anyway. The Ontario government has said we are too stupid to use a lift axle, and unless it is an automatic steering axle, it won't count. So some time soon my tri-axle will only be able to carry a tandem load. Bad dog seems to be well informed on axle weights and the new regulations coming in for us.

We could have used that plow in Northern Illinois this winter! Only thing,you may have not gotten reimbursed by our state after! Good thing you stayed up there! Again,nice video & trucks!

85snowdog Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 He's a guy that can really plow!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=33o9lvMKnLAI remember that video. The guy got fired for it.We are told the same thing he says in the video"get the snow pushed back" . In the process of doing that, cars may get buried, driveways get filled. You can't really help it. He was just enjoying it too much. Really , its a terrible job. We get threatened, shovels thrown at the truck, cars parked in the way on purpose. And to top it off we are told if we say or do anything in response, we will be fired on the spot. No second chances.

MACKS Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Cool vid and very nice trucks,same here in NY with the weight regs,starting in 2015 they want all trucks to have four axles and the drop must be a steerable if you want to haul the maximum allowed weight of 79000 lbs .. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34793-85-snowdog-my-story/#findComment-239767 Share on other sites More sharing options...
85snowdog Posted March 29, 2014 Author Share Posted March 29, 2014 Vision386, Back in Black, AdirondakMack and MACKS, thanks guys for the complements. My trucks have never been new, but I have always been particular about how they work and look. That means when everyone else was enjoying their weekend, I am usually working on something………….Thats how I enjoy my weekend! 2 Quote Keith Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/34793-85-snowdog-my-story/#findComment-239797 Share on other sites More sharing options...
