Went up the road a few miles this morning and loaded a winch. There were 4 trucks loading there today. Two of us getting winches. Don't know what the others got. We are all going to Golden Meadow, Louisiana. It will end up on an off shore oil rig. Was a tight squeeze to load this morning. As you can see in the photo below I had to back to the crane and between the outriggers. The back of the trailer was about 3 inches from the crane. He also had to lift my winch over another one to get it to my truck. The winch weighed 68,000 pounds.
Got it on and tied down. That cable has a larger diameter than my arm.
Got on the road and got in bumper to bumper traffic in Houston. Went past where the Houston Texans play.
When I stopped at a truck stop to scale up I saw this truck. Think my truck is big? Check this one out.
My gross weight is 110,200 pounds.
Stopped for the night at a small truck stop / casino in Grey, LA.
