Re: Put 'em to work pics !!!
Really nice trailer. Glad you made it without incedent. As a long haul driver , I have to contend with heavy loads and hills everyday. Thank God nobody brake checked you. Have that happen often. It always makes me question peoples intelligence when they challenge 80,000lbs with their 3500lbs. Who do they think is going to win when the 80,000lb guy doesn't give a crap about their lives anymore.

They never even think of that until your truck is 12” inside their vehicle!

It appears to be a rear-end of a rear-end. What you don't see is the back of the semi the truck ran into. Quite a destruction.

"On 15 September 2016, the virality of the misrepresented photograph became its own news story, with one outlet reporting that: Sadly, two people in the pickup truck lost their lives in the collision. It’s a gruesome photo, but an important reminder to give big trucks room on the road. The post was shared more than 3,200 times, just hours after it was posted on Facebook. Even if it makes just one motorist stop and rethink the way they drive around trucks, then it’s worth sharing. However, it’s worth noting that none of the details shared about the “Chevy Suburban” photograph was accurate: two adults died in the depicted wreck (no small child was killed), and the deceased motorist did not cause the crash by driving unsafely. Although reminders about safe driving are not themselves unseemly, using a photograph of an inaccurately described fatal accident to make an unrelated point treads that line (as does the “type rest in peace” directive aimed solely at leveraging the tragedy for Facebook engagement). Moreover, relatives of the people tragically killed were put at risk of unnecessary emotional distress by graphic images circulating Facebook alongside grossly misconstrued claims inaccurately blaming the victims for their deaths. ![]() |
