I had 3 days off before I started my new job, so I took a last minute NCM.

It was a little bit cold with some sand covered snow, kinda like driving over a large Twinkie.

I also finally got to try out my double trailer setup (pulled perfect!).

I had an Awesome time & only had 2 problems...

a blown sand tire & my 'hippie camo' lawn chair ended up in the fire after several beers & some high winds.

Is this even legal? I've seen this using a 5th wheel as the first trailer, but not like this.

The overall rig can be no longer than 65' foot in the state of Oklahoma.

That's what the highway patrol told me....

Good to see you had a good time even with the hiccups. What new job are you starting?

Here is a link for that information.

I'd be more concerned exceeding the max GCVW of the truck.

he was good friends with all of them and the oklahoma lake patrol (helped do drowning searches), they just looked the other way when he went by!

Whats up LeatherNeck!

I've been working on the Devon tower project in OKC as an electrician for the past 2 years for Walker Engineering from Texas.

Now I've started a new career with Ross electric, a local electrical company.

We do all of Chesapeake Energy's Electrical & so far they seem like pretty good people to work for with Plenty of work.

Thanx for the link & good point on the GCVW.

I've added taller tires than stock, so I changed my rear end from the factory 3.55 R&P to a 4.10 R&P (with Limited Slip).

My truck basically turns about 500 RPM's over stock combined with the taller tires & I also just leave it in DRIVE when towing a heavy load.

He sounds like a fellow RedNeck that I would most likely get along with Great. 8)
