What has your ride DONE FOR YOU lately?

Funny. The networking guys at my company are some of the nicest, but damn...trying to get them to work....

wonder what it is about network guys.

"Not my job" is the quickest way to get escorted out at my plant. If it's on the company's property, it's your fucking job.

Seems like my company only hires arrogant "it is your privilege to work with me" types for networking. Want to trade networking guys?

Looks like that Super Duty needs a set of Bags!!
Coincidentally, just ordered as set of Firetones for the Ram..

Yes it does, but I don't tow enough shit that heavy on a regular basis to worry about it. I should have went 350 over 250.

Our DBA's are masters of the "thats not my job". Um.. you did it last time and the time before that and before that... but now.. today.. its not their job. It's unreal.

That's where working with shitbags in a union becomes a benefit. If it's in the job description (which is usually left sort of open ended/generic for tasks), all you have to do is ask "are you refusing work?", and it quickly escalates to the shop steward which they don't like

Guy on Craigslist got a large oak cut down, that means free firewood season. Went and picked up a load of 2’ diameter rounds for splitting.

Going to go back tomorrow to grab more with a buddy as they are too large for me to roll up on the trailer solo. Had to go fishing in the woods to get these out

What's the suspension like on that trailer? My wife took ours (hers) to get a load of dirt and said the wheels were rubbing the fender with all the weight.

She had a 1.5 yards in the bed of the truck and an equal amount on the trailer. Seeing her pull up, I felt bad for my truck.

It’s a 3500 lb axle with leaf springs probably beefier than the taco OEM ones

 

[Taco Loco]

90% of the 5x10 and smaller trailers have 2500lb springs or less.

Looking at those numbers I definitely exceeded it loading up those logs

 

[Taco Loco]

My 5x10 has 3.5k Axle, I've loaded it with a pallet of grass before, no way I could put that in the bed of the truck

Sounds like we need a trailer mods thread.

You can put a pallet of grass in the bed of the Tacoma. I've done it before. That job was one where I decided to double down and make sure I graduated college because installing grass in the middle of summer sucks ass!

Just put it in here

Trailers, EXPO, RV, POP-UP, ETC....

her trailer is rated for 2000#

She said the guys who loaded it told her that each scoop was 1 Ton and that they got 2 scoops on the trailer and 1.5 in the bed of the truck.

well if you put 4k lbs on a trailer rated to haul 3/4 of a ton I’d expect some rubbing

Hauled a new deer stand down to the property. Metal base and sides are 3/4. My truck didn't like the 300 mile trip but its now in place and ready for the fall.

 

[PSU Taco85]

It pissed on my garage floor, looks like it's time for a diaper and some new axle seals.
