    Finally was able to get a picture of the truck. This is at a local transfer station. I am dumping roughly 5.5 tons of roofing debris.

    Trust me. Once you do the air system you'll never be sorry you did it. It saves my ass all the time. I wish I would have held out for the 2008 model.

    im already sorry i dont have it. i went to a gas station the other day and as i tried to inflate the inside rear tires all it did was deflate them. then i noticed the nozzle was bent, so i went down to the local tire shop that i use all the time and the guy there filled them up for me, which was nice, but the scratches he put in my rim are not. since there aluminum im hoping that i can polish them out. im also wondering where the best place is to get the tank, hose real, ect.

    thanks for any help and its been nice talking to you.

    The comperssor can be found on ebay and the air tanks. The hose and reel you can get them at Northern Tools. You can only fit the reall with 25ft of hose. The 50ft reel is too big. Good luck.

    They get slippery when wet, but they stay out of the way in low ground clearance situations.

    work trucks

    the 1st photo cost me $1500.oo in fines for that move.:doah: I was told it was 16 wide so I get a 16 wide permit, well when I get there to load I measure it at 18'1''. my stupidity I say load it, long story short I had a run in with the law. thank goodness he did not weigh me because the crane operator said he put16,500 on me making my gross at 32k.

    the 2nd photo is what I love to do, the bigger, the better, the tighter the roads the more challenging. I LOVE when people say you can't get that 330 up that mountain road.

    Love the photo of the bird in the grill. I never hit a bird in over 23 years of driving until this year. My business partner commented on it, and I hit 4 in a week. Love the lowrider lincoln?? Havent seen the 13 wires in a few years. I must assume you are hauling for a repo company??

    I was taking the dog and a camaro out to Dallas and hit that bird, didn't see it till i went to fill up so left it on, hehe

    Well the big trailer belongs to a race team i haul for. I pull that 52 footer, then work the pits for 4 days.

    I have a Lowrider and know alot lowriders and people with shops that need cars taken to customers. I been towing for friends but that is getting old, everyone wants it cheap.

    Too Many Loads to Post

    I could sit here and post loads all day, but here is one for you. This truck is the Original Big Foot III, and the truck tires and trailer weighed in at 36,472 pounds, and my truck is 8650 with me and normal equipment.
