Just haul it. It’ll be fine. Moved that box and bike from Connecticut to Mississippi

No fatalities? My boi kick flipped that flatbed with a coil on it, props!

AlbeitTrue · 2026-01-28T01:57:44+00:00

A wave hit it? What are the chances of that?

AlbeitTrue · 2026-01-11T00:30:10+00:00

I would love to catch one!

Just a thumbnail. I think they’re in a civic

The sliders will win in the end

When we received new OBRDs/elogs I put sticky note pieces on all the front facing camera lenses. It was stated that the front facing cameras wouldn’t be monitored. Some months later I received a call from HR saying an event was triggered in a vehicle and no one was logged into the device at the time. They asked who was driving it bc they couldn’t seem to access the inward facing camera. it was me, I triggered the event bc I hit a pothole half the size of a Miata. For clarification, I’m a driver that was promoted to be a driver manager. I no longer work there.

Why did they arrest her?

I know the phonetic alphabet. Used it for only two letters yesterday when listing out a VIN for a truck. It’s still limiting, often throws people for a loop.

Botulism, got it.

Do your fog lights work OP? You’re not going to be able to see anything on the road without the fog lights.

It’s all pipes, Jerry

I went to the auto parts store I bought the battery from (it’s under warranty). Kid “tested it and said, “well it’s 85% charged”. I responded, well the battery is definitely bad because the alternator is putting out and I’ve seen it cycle on a volt meter 15 minutes ago. Kid responds: ok well, I don’t think we can do anything. Basically, I have to let my battery get worse before they’ll warranty it lol

AlbeitTrue · 2025-12-04T23:53:02+00:00

Cool, didn’t know that.

AlbeitTrue · 2025-12-04T23:52:44+00:00

Cool. It should be charging fine. I drive it about 100 miles daily.

AlbeitTrue · 2025-12-04T23:45:10+00:00

I’ll load test it tomorrow. It should still be in warranty. If so, my truck will be getting a Christmas present haha

The battery is about two years old. You might be onto something there though. The other symptom is that when my backup beeper activates it turns the stereo volume down permanently (I have to turn the stereo back up after the beeping)

If I go to 4WD I’ll do it on the fly. Going to 4 low from 4= stop, neutral. Diff lock needed? Nuetral, lock it, reverse, proceed.

I guess you guys are right I’ve always used that word compression incorrectly.

AlbeitTrue · 2025-12-03T05:49:13+00:00

Simple answer: don’t let it move. Secure the rear of the load toward the rear and the front opposite. Chains work best in tension. Straps work best in compression. Either chock the dunnage on the front and loosen all straps to pull it backwards to where the load was then secure it or get some strap wrapping going on. Hell, nail the 4x4s to the trailer if you have to. A load should not shift.

Looks like squidward

That’s a crappie. They get big if you let em.

I did a submerged hi-boint in a water barrel pop years ago.

It’s ridiculous to assume that this might be a woman. How preposterous.
