Sodbuster, Please post numbers, not general rules of recovery so others here can see why you made the move to own the truck. Other members might not understand a flat statement, they need to see why. We have a very broad base here and the actual numbers and reasons might convince them to own a truck like that.

I just got two new rigs.....not quite as big, but they sure carry a lot.

I bet my cargo will dig just as many holes as yours will, but a lot faster.

That is just about how NAFTA and GAT trucks packed with crap heading to Mexico are loaded. Usually one tons with these make shift 3/4" square channel frames, shoved full of crap, ropes all over the place. Less the people on top of course.
We had one break open and spill a week or so ago. Inside the piles were 8 people who fell out onto the freeway as the truck lost it's load, they were illegals getting coyoteed back home, and then would break back into the country when it's time to come up and get more illegal work.

Living in a boarder town you really open your eyes to what is happening quickly. I only hope we can see one of those trucks when Dale W is out here to get a good laugh!
