This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    In Maine we use to see double and triple tree length trailer trains coming out of the woods. They would drop their trailers near the highway and hook on to empties and head back in. Crazy to see coming at you on a curve :eek:.
    I miss the old days :(

    I believe that's correct, and only on certain highways. I'd have to check further on that.

    I think 28' triples are allowed here in certain states/highways as are 48' & 53' doubles whereas many if not most states limit it to 28' doubles.

    Interesting. Seems the yellow should be "doubles less than 100 feet & greater than xx feet" since afaik all States allow doubles to a certain length (2 x 28' pups + tractor).

    I remember well the Harley Davidson fleet. I lived right off I-83 so they'd often be coming up/down going to/from the old York, PA assembly plant. Those were some bada** looking rigs with the rounded nose & matching trailers. Harley would haul new bikes to their dealers in them and pick up parts from vendors for the assy plants on the backhauls.

    The over-use of the engine brake in the video open was funny. I saw it the other day before the Canadian truck thread was deleted.

    Only 28,000 miles on the odometer, owned by the US Marine Corps.
