Arfcom truckers. What are you hauling today? (Page 12 of 12)
Georgetown, CO now has a new transformer for their substation. We had to jump a bridge in town that was only rated for 42 tons, I was about 150,000 lbs with the SPMT and transformer.   |

We'll have 5 cranes stuffed in this little refinery to demo the heater that blew up. My little RC trailer is priceless, there's no way to get trucks into the cranes, it's loaded light with 150,000 of weights in this picture    |

Well, probably no more pictures from me. I got promoted (or maybe demoted ) to Dispatcher/Manager for our newly formed trucking group. Comes with a salary and some WFH opportunities but it was kinda of tough cleaning out my truck and turning it over to a new guy.  |

Or sold their soul.  "Dude, I just saw him the other day. How could this happen?" |
Lol. It was a tough decision but I was about maxed out for pay running heavy haul. It's nice to be home every night and weekends but damn I wish my phone would stop ringing nonstop, damn drivers are a needy bunch  I'll be hauling this around more, with Star Link I can do a lot of my work remotely

Holiday weekend so nobody is moving anything oversized due to the restrictions. So I'm heading over to Dubios, WY for a few days and visit the National Museum of Military Vehicles (can't believe I've been here since 2012 and haven't been)
