Well it didn't leave today. The company my dad hired brokered it out to another and paperwork was wrong so driver thought he was picking up a 12000lb Humvee. He said the truck was bigger and weighed more like 13500lbs. He said that will screw up his other loads so he can't take it. He did come with a nice F350 6.4 and a P&J gooseneck trailer. My dad has to call in the morning and figure things out.

Nope, my dad owns an excavating company (Dirtworks Inc.) in Hollywood, Fl. He plans to use it for a water truck like his last one.

Well that plan didn't work out. A F350 and a gooseneck seem a bit small to haul that Duece all the way to FL with anyway.

Some of those hot shot guys move some big stuff with just a pickup and a gooseneck. I sure wouldn't want to do it!

Just because it fits on the trailer doesn't mean it should be hauled on that trailer.

Using it for a construction company should beat the crap out of it
