55 mph gravel

You won't be dealing with snow anymore either hu? Looking forward to that?

She still finds ways to incapacitate her vehicles though.

No you didn’t. Truck wouldn’t stay on these roads at those speeds.

Yes I know some gravel you can run 50 on. I did my fair share of that in my early days. This county just sucks. Oh it’s rural route numbers too. Give me paper and take away my power steering and I can pretend to be from 1980

Who said I stayed on the roads?

Our Ford Econolines and P-400's with Twin I-Beam Suspension would handle those roads at 50 mph no problem.

hell I ran 35 trying to get air off and 75% of the packages ended up on the floor. 20-25 here and occasionally you need to slow down under 10 you are not doing 55 on these View attachment 260812View attachment 260813View attachment 260814

Now those aren't roads, they are driveways where I'm at. Still can cruise them at 40. The roads we have can easily be driven at 50-65.

Yeah those are decent gravel roads. Everything I posted was a county road. You don’t even want to see the driveways lol.


I expected something more like this for you

I know people

Heard you were gassy and tried to blame
Your donkey

I own my stench! My burro constantly sneezes and tries to mingle with the cows at stops just to get my stench off him.

back in my runner days i would fly on those roads. Picked up real good when an area like that popped up

You guys are crazy! There are a couple routes
In my building that still have box numbers. RR1 box 21c.

Try running stuff on forestry roads. No rhyme or reason on how the numbering system works. Be lucky to even have numbers for miles. We literally have addresses that will look something like this in some of our areas:

John Smith
3rd NF West

Lol I understand man! On routes like that you just remember people’s last names and drive to there house. That’s how it is with me and a couple of the routes in my center.

Yep we’ve got a few too. Sucks running those routes

Had a balls out circle of honor driver who may very well gone on drive SCORE trucks. He busted up stuff bad with his P5.

Personally I love seeing how much dust I can kick up...
Bonus Points if it's still hanging in the air after I deliver and come back the same way.
Use to have a 20 mile round trip down one of these roads almost weekly(for just one stop) Drifting a 500 is always fun!

 

[PeakMode]

Does a stretch of road that runs inside the creek bed count?


The problem is the kind of rock they use and the fact that rough bedrock is randomly sticking up all over.

Done that aswell during a rain storm that covered half the wheels. From naked women to delivering to a meth lab...not to much I haven't been thru.

Nothing more valuable than a good Rolodex

You know, I am a lot of things. Not very social, sometimes a jerk, I swear and can be rude to people, but in all my years, I've never been as hurtful as you two were with these comments. I can't talk about this anymore.
