Haven't been on in a long time, so long my old account was deleted due to inactivity lol. Been driving over the road for 10 months now. Was lucky enough I didn't have to start out at a super carrier. Guess 3 years of local belly dump and misc. equipment hauling paid off. I haul a huge variety of stuff. No two loads have been the same. As you can see, I hate having a dirty truck too lol. I drove this truck for about 35,000 miles. Then they offered me this one to do RGN and heavy haul with. Still do regular flatbed freight mostly though. Irrigation Pivot I took to Northern California. My first real oversize load, 14' 2" wide. Don't remember the front and rear overhang. Sittin pretty in Barstow, CA. Grossed 104,000 on this one. Railroad bridge beam section to Oregon. Me and my buddy had fun at the casino this night lol. Nothing cooler than running into your old man out on the road. Combine I took to Northern California to work in the rice fields. Somewhere along 80 in the desert of Nevada. That t800 is hot as fuck seriously.

Pivots are awesome... then again I'm biased.... Also, How close to Elko were you in that last pic? That spot seems familiar.

Because I remember shortly after passing through Battle Mountain it rained on me all the way to Wells. And pivots are a love hate relationship with me. I love getting to see the back country where they go but I hate when they want to string them out. Took 6 hours to unload once in Utah once. Two separate systems in one load each going to different fields and it was raining and muddy as hell that day. Talk about a miserable long day lol.

Used to live down there, that's why I said that, lol
I love Pivots... well because I grew up with them, and watching the irrigation around here, it's a wreck compared to sticking the water in a pipe and not seeing it again till it's out of the sprinkler.

The desert is awesome. Nevada and California are my two favorite states to run in. Southern California has gotta be my favorite though.

That's nice they have to remind you to put diesel fuel only in the truck.

How wide is that crate? Doesn't look like you need a pilot car
