Oversized Load, Just Had To Post!

[Rafter H BBQ]

Hey all, was headed to Dr yesterday and seen this. Nic snapped a pic! I give the guy a thumbs up when we passed, I think he seen as he was smiling. I love folks who have a sense of humor!

Anyway, thought I’d share!

Well at least his back haul wasn’t empty. Lol

I love it! I'd still like to see him pulled over by the DOT and make sure he's not overweight!

Gives a little humor to a load of post holes.

Appears to be a three axle trailer that optioned for only 2

Now that is funny Justin,

I love it! I'd still like to see him pulled over by the DOT and make sure he's not overweight!

And that is the first thing I thought when I looked at the picture.

He doesn't know how to load a trailer properly. All the weight is at the back of the trailer, most of it should be slightly forward of the axle.

Really should have got that centered over the axles a little better for a load like that.

I live in open pit coal mining country and have seen similar things several times. In reality... only the bed of a haul truck will fit on a semi trailer, the truck gets assembled at the mine site.

About 15 years ago I had a client that fabricated dragline buckets for an Australian company. They added all kinds of nose art and graphics to their products. They caused quite a commotion when they shipped out by semi.

For those not familiar with open pit mining and dragline. The festive bucket is hoisted out to the load, dropped and dragged to the left to fill I assume a 40 yard bucket.

I think this one is closer to an 80 yard (cubic yard) bucket.
