Would you consider this overloaded?

[BigHornMan]

They probably called AAA, then headed to the local coffee shop to wait until it was fixed... . I would pay good money to see the look from a AAA driver after pulling up to that.

 

[NIsaacs]

Triple A would probably fix the tires and think nothing of it

I wonder how much just one of those slabs weigh? The next question is, how many men did it take to lift it that high? It seems to me that it took several stupid people to accomplish this. I would assume they had to be lifted onto the trailer with a fork lift or crane.

Oh yes, there was more than one person involved in that fiasco for sure... .

But it is a 4X4 teyotee!

I would have bet on a 4 cylinder automatic Ford Ranger.

So whats the problem??? just needs a little air and some Slime to patch the tires and away we go. In CA that would have been a stolen trailer or just run it until this happens remove the plates and drive away.

BIGNASTY,



How'd the knee rebuild go?

Good ,took a little longer on the table than what they said. But feels good when drugs die down. They are pretty insentient about taking the Morphine they want me to move as much as I can to keep the stiffness out. It looks like HELL something DR Frankenstein put together with those staples. Walked to the chow hall and back and went out side for awhile. The thing that is the most bothersome is the DAM NOISE Ca is SO LOUD THAT I CANT SLEEP. But some drugs take care of that problem. :-laf Said Ill be out on Monday AM. Cant wait I hate hospitals. This is what they put in

 

[GCroyle]

BIGNASTY,



Uh I didn't see a grease fitting, did they supersize your (I can't say it) "knee" and make one leg heavier duty than the other side, you know one side = 2500 new joint = 3500 or did you get the airbag overload version?



Glad to hear all went well, soon you can put CA in the rear view mirror, get back to wind in the pines of Big Sky Country.

To completely go off topic, move as much as you can. If the drugs help you move, by all means take them. Let me tell you, if scar tissue builds up in there, you will have to undergo a "manipulation. " You'll be told "this might hurt a little" and we all know what that means. The worst case scenario is that you actually go back to the operating room to have that done and you still wake up pretty sore. As for the Frankenstein look, all that bruising will go away. Give it a few weeks and you'll just have some nice pin striping going across your knee. Good luck with the rehab.



Back to on topic, I don't see any reason it should be overloaded. There ARE 4 wheels back there!

 

[AABEN]

Looks like the axles is bent.

No Gary they will be the same now. The left one was done when the leg got blown off and then again about 9 years ago. Now this one makes it equal out. Only this one is SUPOSED to last the rest of my time on the planet. :-laf Wife told them you dont know him VERY WELL DO YOU.

I have done quite a bit today they took out the staples and I got on a stationary bike for 20 min walked about 1/4 mile and did some stairs then deep knee bends to see how deep I could go unassisted ( no arms to get up) and did 85 degree. The physical Therapist ask if it hurt I told him those ain't the tears of joy Elroy. Doc said to do as much as I can so I can go home THATS INCENTIVE ENOUGH. Get released in the Monday AM. As for the scars the CHICKS DIG THAT LOOK the Doc looked at all mine 2 on the wrist/ missing left leg with knee replacement scars/sternum scar when mule fell on my chest had to pin that back together/ torn pectoral muscle reattachment/ and right shoulder surgery and now my right knee so I have allot of scars to show off. FIL said you played to hard time to take it easy :-laf And he knows me all to well. Ill take it easy when the NAIL THE LID SHUT :-laf I want to go home so I can play with my new SNOW PLOW Only mine is a two seater so the wife can hold the Coffee :-laf

 

[CBari]

Ok this is what I don't get. Look at the size of the slabs. They weren't picked up by anything that this trailer would haul. Which tells me that somewhere on the job site was a trailer that would have gotten closer to hauling this load.



Nasty hope the knee does well for you I will be looking forward to some pics of the mules pulling the plow.
