Well, look closely at these two oil field truck photos. Yeah Jay & Huge, you're real Pros! "Crazy 'white guy' eh?

Seems that the local fire department in Georgia where we do the police towing (remember we are actually in Alabama, but get all the calls there ) Well they were responding to a brush fire at about 11pm, and managed to slide a pumper off the dirt roadway into the ditch, Well they took a brush unit in to fight the fire and drove around it and when they got done, they came back to pull the pumper out, It slid into the ditch also, and so they did not learn. You know they did it right. They called the county road department to bring out a grader... YUP you guessed it, got that stuck in the other ditch... So at 2 AM they call me to come rescue everyone. Nice tow bill for all the winching... But to dark so no pictures A good reputation is more valuable than money. Publilius Syrus (~100 BC)

I would always complain to to get the driveway widened and twice I almost landed the tandems in the ditch. My company had to call the local Peanut farmer down the road with his John Deer to pull me out over the small driver. Same Truck, Different Day...
