Early Thursday Morning…. We’re On The Road

Dave loaded the 6 in the trailer yesterday. The overall length of the truck and trailer is over 50 feet! Its a monster.

Truck and trailer

The trailer is nice and roomy with great tie-down points. Big doors and a new ramp made the drive-in quite uneventful.

TR6 in trailer

Once the trailer was loaded we did one last walk around to check the air pressure in the tires, etc. The tires on the truck don’t have a lot of miles on them but it looks like we ran over some debris from the hurricane when we were bringing the trailer home.

Truck tire damage

Imagine what would happen if you were driving a 7,000 pound truck at 65mph and you were hauling a 4,000 pound trailer when this tire blew. Of course it would have happened in the middle of nowhere Mississippi. A quick trip to the tire store and the truck is once again a safe vehicle.

More later today………..
