InterceptorV8 posted:There are reverse b doubles flatbeds I see quite a bit. Instead of the first trailer being short, the first is long, but has a tri-axle with the 5th wheel plate, then hooks into a smaller flat. Sounds like a stag double they're the new rage with the tippers over here. The short back trailer makes it easier to jackknife out of the way to dump the A-trailer. And the way their setup puts all the weight in the back trailer over the back tri rather the spread over the drive and first tri. Rudager fucked around with this message at 13:52 on Sep 20, 2013 |

*sticks his face into the coal stream like the picture of the dog getting sprayed with a water hose. Just hair getting blown back and being fully fumigated. Suddenly it stops and I notice Interceptor popping the park brake and cracking open the cab door. I come running excitedly with my arms outstretched before being slammed brutally to the parking lot pavement by a moose guarded cattle hauler's front end and horrifically mashed into a pulp by each dual set that follows to where whats left begins to actually ooze into the large cracks in the pavement itself. Interceptor's eyes are wide and his mouth slightly agaped in disbelief to what the gently caress just unfolded infront of him and over a few feet from impact is my lower extremities from about the lower chest to the taint area exposed up into the air. My anus begins to slowly release an audibly delicious symphonic geyser of blood, poo poo, semen, and gaseous emissions that the EPA just walks the gently caress by to that poo poo I apologize.

When the last thread closed it felt like another mom and pop had gone under, now it feels like I just rolled into the Petro in Gaston, In, at midnight and there's a pullthrough open close to the building. It must be my birthday!

Say "roll coal" three times and Nutcup will appear. Might take a couple of days but I got a crazy loving story for you all, as soon as I am cleared to talk about it, make sure it wasn't one of you idiots involved. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5QYYlfXQFk I swear to god, it was like this.

I REMEMBER THE FIRST TIME I SAID ROLL COAL INTO A MIRROR AND NUTCUP APPEARED. IT FEELS LIKE IT WAS ALMOST YESTERDAY, IV8 AND I WERE HAVING A SLEEPOVER IN THE TRUCK STOP ALONG I95 IN PHILLY. IV8 WAS WEARING JEANS AND A TSHIRT THAT SMELLED OF DIESEL AND HAD CURSIVE WRITING THAT SAID "ASK ME ABOUT PUTTING MY RANGE SELECTOR INTO 'gently caress'". HE PULLED OUT A SUNSHADE VISOR WITH A VANITY MIRROR AND SAID LETS PLAY A GAME IVE HEARD OF, ITS CALLED "CHAPLESS NUTCUP". IT WILL TELL YOU THE NEXT TRUCK YOU WILL DRIVE. I DONT BELIEVE IN GHOSTS OR FHE SUPERNATURAL SO I SAID IT WAS BULLSHIT AND THATS DUMB, THEN IV8 ASKED ME WHAT I WAS SCARED OF. IM NOT AFRAID OF ANYTHING SO I TOOK THE MIRROR AND GAZED INTO. IN THE DISTANCE THERE WAS A SOUND OF THUNDER. "ROLL COAL" I SAID, BRANCHES OMINOUSLY BANGED ON THE WINDOWS OR MAYBE IT WAS A GUY LOOKING FOR AN OPEN SHITTER, ANYWAYS, "ROLL COAL" I BRAZENLY SAID A SECOND TIME AND THE WIND PICKED UP AND BLEW OUT ALL THE CANDLES SO IV8 YELLED AT THE loving rear end in a top hat DRYING HIS HANDS TO KNOCK IT THE gently caress OFF. "ROLL COAL" I SAID THE THIRD TIME AND THE BATHROOM LIGHTS WENT OFF AND AN OTHERWORLDLY GLOW CAME FROM THE VISOR BECAUSE OT HAD ONE OF THOSE BATTERY OPERATED LIGHTS ON IT WHICH IS PRETTY NIFTY IF YOU ASK ME. THEN HE APPEARED IN THE MIRROR, ALTHOUGH IT WASNT LIKE HIS FACE IT STARTED WITH THE BACK OF HIS HEAD AND ROTATED AROUND AND KEPT REALLY CLOSE FOCUS AND WENT UP AND DOWN MAKING SURE TO PAUSE ON HIS SICK ABS IT WAS LIKE THAT D'ANGELO VIDEO ACTUALLY EXCEPT NUTCUP KEEPS HIS DREADS IN HIS PANTS, THEY POKE OUT AROUND THE CHAPS ANYWAYS I BECAME A BELIEVER THAT DAY AND SAW THE MOST HORRIFYING TALE OF MY FUTURE. AS THE CAMERA SLOWLY PANNED DOWN TO HIS BARE rear end AT FIRST I NOTICED A LITTLE DESIGNER TAG ON HIS CHAPS AND THOUGHT "WHOA THATS COOL I COULD GO FOR SOME OF THOSE" BUT WHEN I LOOKED CLOSER I SAW IT, THE PROPHECY. IT SAID SWIFT.

To get it in a size that'll actually fit a trucker however you have to go regular tee: http://www.cafepress.com/cp/customize/product2.aspx?from=CustomDesigner&number=999630256 All the way to 4XL baby. Edit: Also, holy poo poo cafe press is a ripoff. Get someone with some actual artistic talent to design this thing, then maybe it would be worth the money.

Today I played the role of makeshift roadside assistance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=997lVQ2BPQ8 Loaded the van in my transfer dump truck (with the box or whatever you call it on the ground) then it was a matter of backing up against the trailer (thank God it had adjustable suspensions because I sure as hell do not!). Also no sound because it was too windy to be worth it.

So here's a video from a site that's a good one for passing time, the sort of stuff I think truckers will enjoy. I warn you that it's decidedly  , and that you'll want an ad blocker... It just so happens that this one video is actually a truck video...http://grab.orsm.net/php/flow.php?file=update20131010/truck-brakes-fail-going-down-a-hill.mp4 Which leads me to ask, was there anything better this guy should have done, or was he pretty much hosed?

The unfortunate thing here is that white sign at the end says "runaway lane". He almost made it but for the black MB with half its rear end blocking the shoulder.

Assuming it's got air brakes, shouldn't the spring brakes have slammed on there? It's sort of hard to imagine a situation where something could go so wrong that the entire system couldn't depressurize and engage the springs. Unless it was some kind of enormous brake fade, but it looked reasonably under control in the beginning. Hell, for that matter I've never seen a video of a truck losing air pressure. I've always assumed the brakes re-engaging would be awfully pants-making GBS threads for a moment.

It is brake fade. the brake drums heat up, move away from the shoes, the shoes can no longer contact the drums, the truck runs away. This is why runaway lanes exist.

I'd just like to point out to the mouth breathers on the other forums that "laying a truck over" is never the best loving idea, ever. Using two G-wegens is much better of an idea. I get to spend my off day filling out some paperwork because some people are too loving stupid to act like adults on the interstate, so I'm pretty cranky about this poo poo.

I've driven cars where the handbrake is a true "emergency" brake inasmuch as it's completely mechanically separate from the service brakes and can be used even if the regular brakes are unusable from wear or heat, but that type of brake isn't common on cars, usually it's on sports cars that are expected to be driven hard enough to see brake fade from heat. Is that type of emergency brake as uncommon on big trucks, or is it just that there's only so much any emergency brake can do?
