:shock: :shock: :shock: Dummie didn't even have sense to back the truck out of the street! go figure!


Saw this one that you might be interested in Silver.....great example of roll-off work..and shows why most trucks, especially those that use a hook, have a tail support, that sets down to the ground and keeps trucks from doing what this one does.

I don't think that this drop and hook went quite right:

about the roll off.......the driver made this comment..."
See I bet he would have loved to bring the box 3/4 ways up..but what little does everyone know is that box is missing 1/2 the rail on one side, So he could either pull a nice wheel stander or bring it 3/4's up the rail and have it slip off to the left and flip over a 189,000 dollar truck..hmmm i say do the wheelie its cheaper..and thats how you pick up a 90,000lb box thats broken so it can be brought in for repairs..Or get the crying driver who says i cant do it.time is money here.get it poping "

Hey Stan...

Things are going ok with the roll off, they're a little slow so I'm not on the

truck as much as I'd like. I'm still having trouble eyeballing the rails

when I'm in the cab. I'm trying to back up as straight as I can but

sometimes I'm a little off. I wonder if hooking up and pulling a little

forward whould help to straighten the box out. I'll get it soon....I

hope..... :? :shock: :? 8) 8) 8)

LOL...i've never see a truck driver move so fast as in the first video

and i seen one of our dump truck drivers lift the front axle about 4 feet off the ground while trying to spread base rock up a fairly steep hill...he was white as a sheet when he got out of the truck. Didn't really impress the owner who happen to be running the dozer that day :lol:

What's the chances.,..

The truck was in the shop. Is there a possibility that it was there for a bad starter? Maybe he didn't move the truck simply because he could not do so? Perhaps, he had to go get a chain and something to pull it with?
