I believe the term your looking for CB is 'GI-normous' :lol and you drive it far away from short-legged, grain-fed gals who work at the scales :lol

It bends in the middle, CB. It'd go around a McDonald's drive-thru if they didn't have the low clearance :thumb

Hmmmm...let me put it this way...federal regs give us car haulers with "stinger-steered" equipment (bends in the middle, low fifth wheels down behind the rear tandems) 75 feet from bumper to bumper on what is called STAA highways (interstates and main routes mostly). They also allow us 3 feet overhang on the front and 4 feet out the back which brings us to a grand total of 82 feet.

Each state has their own interpretation of such laws and Cali says the fed's don't apply in their borders. Why did that not surprise me? :whistle Driving it is easier for me than herding a GEO round town...I get a little more respect for some reason.

Wow! Your car looks like a nicer starting point than mine is. Decent paint, and the hazard flasher button looks orange and new!

Au contraire, Jim-Bob! Ol' 3-FITTY looked pretty sad when I went to get her but she did clean up better than I thought she would. The initial pics of yours look pretty good to me. :thumb
