Road Trip......?

Post by ffuries »

Anyone up for a road trip that has a big truck? This is currently sitting somewhat abandoned at a truck stop in Louisiana, would look good sitting in my front yard.

Nice equipment trailer, the scrap on it should bring enough to cover the snacks bill for the road trip.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

abandoned? I doubt that! :chuckles:

That is worth quite a lot.
I'd go after it but, I'm retired and don't need a "commute vehicle" any more! :thumbsup:

That truck looks impressive and could definitely be a great addition to your yard! If you’re planning to make a road trip to check it out, it might be worth planning some comfortable stops along the way. For a good pit stop during long trips, I’ve found to be a solid choice. It’s a nice place to relax and recharge before hitting the road again.

From what I understand these tanks are as reliable and safe as a 1986 Yugo, why would you want one?

Armor up a D9 Cat dozer, it would do a better job without tossing a track or bursting into flames.
