You better hang onto that dad. He & we were all 16 at one point. But then we had some friends die on the highway.

Take care, now. Thanks for the pix.

43,000lbs, from nebraska to alaska. My 40ft goose weighed 8200 with 12,000 dexter axles. Its amazing what these trucks can do. He hauled 5,000 more lbs, so he has me beat. Blackie, looks good.

You guys in the US are just insane
Very impressive load I must admit. Here in Germany a 16 year old wouldn´t even get his driving license. For trailers above 750 kg (total weight) everyone has to take driving lessons to get the licence. Makes me want to live in the US someday though

Nice looking load. I'll have to try harder, my normal is 14-17 with 5x6s. Definitely the first time I've see the 3 high stack.

I had to send that pic to a couple of hay hauling buddies, telling them they have a new load to beat.
