Jeeze and I thought I had to train myself "SWING OUT, SWING OUT" !

must take special permits for over 60 - 65 foot to drive thru states like (heck, it's a shorter list of states that DON'T have a max length :) )


But I will say don't have a problem running into Flying J to fill up with fuel and def when pulling the 5er...

the truckers usually LIKE getting behind me since they know I will be quick with only 26 gallons :)

....The California trucks I've been told in my year had a smaller opening for the CARB (Calif Air Resources Boards) approval....If I pull into a big rig island the nozzle wont fit in the tank.

Looking to sell mine though, and get one of those Polaris Rzr's since I'm getting too old to take the beating of a quad.

You should look at the "Harpoon" mod.

I got a few good ones for you all! My home improvement company only runs fords, we finally rid ourselves of the last few chevys we had and now it's all ford all the time!
First up is our 1995 F350 14 foot bed hauling a 40 foot white gutter on the racks.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...96668492_o.jpg
Second is my 2006 F250 6.0 diesel before this years blizzard we got. I'm from Hamden CT and we had the record of 41 inches of snow and my truck handled it no problem...with Pirelli Scorpion summer tires on cause I couldnt afford winter tires unfortunately...go figure haha.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...98266209_o.jpg
My 06 again, kinda hard to see but I was making my way home and a firetruck was stranded in the middle of the road, i plowed open the whole street hooked up to the firetruck and pulled it right out. Love my ford!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...32636885_o.jpg
Next up is my 99 F450 with a 10 foot dump, i made the steel box on it and the whole leaf sucker trailer attachment. I've hauled some serious loads in that truck.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...22497856_o.jpg
And last but not least my 06 parked next to my uncles 08.http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...31085858_o.jpg

Maybe a larger tank would help on those long trips......

I enjoy reading posts more than anything. Plus if you really look around every question I've ever really had has been answered so I never really needed to post. But I will definitely work on posting some more haha.
