Oh, I directly blame you Mr Tex, and Dep for me finally getting getting this truly aweful, but amazing game. I do pretty good in tippy truck…mainly I need the good tires it, I’ve only rolled it once, and almost done with the first, I have got it stuck, just hanging at a 45 degree angle, and had to winch down. Lol.
Is it wrong of me to get the mental image of randolph p checkers if he was marcus munitions from borderlands driving a servis truck every time i hear it lol?
And tippy truck forever! I honestly do alright, most times in it, even when using the crane, lol. I also try to operate it, more like I do our boom truck in real life at work. And I’ve taken our boom truck with a peg leg, into and through some really hairy terrain, places you wouldn’t think it could, and definitely shouldn’t go/make it through, with its normal highway tires on it, haha. Had an older, but “junior” coworker be like I’m glad it was it was you driving. Shortly after he started with us, he was like I wouldn’t mind trying to get through this mud and water, holes for 4 miles, for fun, in a paid for vehicle, or I couldn’t be held accountable. I was like ehh. Either we made it or not. And they’d be pissed of we didn’t, as that’d be an expensive hill to recover it. But hey, we had to go that way. Cause of weather and conditions, accidents on normal roads. Really surprised I didn’t blow airbags or the tranny, overheat, but yeah. Definitely used the Tex method. Low gear. Foot to floor, power through everything, but while keeping an a very close eye on temps and pressures, and letting off. Slightly when needed and possible to do so.
And god this is hilarious, am rewatching as I feel asleep during the work week while watching the first time. And I’ve gotten my boom truck through some horrible mud and water half way up my diesel tanks…it just has regular tires on it, doesn’t have a locking diff, none of that, not 4 wheel drive. And well we kinda had to go that way, and it got bad real fast. Fast enough there was no stopping, or turning back…told my buddy. Well, looks like we’re going through, or else this is gonna be an expensive towing bill…as there probably gonna have to get D6 out here to come get us. I was happy I got through. Didn’t blow any airbags, or break anything, and yep, as soon it got bad, hammer down mad it through 3 miles of that crap, back to far more solid ground. She was only a little bit overheating, kicked the fan into manual, and just parked. Letting it cool down. Definitely momentum and RPMs are your friend. As long as you got any kind of traction, rpm very good, for those that never drove in crap like that. No brakes, no let off the long skinny pedal, all go. He was just like damn, glad we made it through. And you were driving, not me, I wouldn’t want to get it stuck, haha. He’s older and a good driver, but I grew up on the Oregon coast. Wet and mud is damn near everything. You can dig down a few inches in places or a foot and you’re hitting the water table, at least in lots of the valleys, we’d make hellacious mud bogs on our property to run through, and awesome wheeling out in the hills.
Oh my coworker was also new, only been hired on like 2 months maybe, the main reason he said he was glad it was me, they’d be more unlikely to fire me, then a new guy who broke something/got stuck and cost them money. I was more worried about just getting stuck, the embarrassment that would mean, haha.
I've never seen Tex and Dep laugh like absolute fools so much. This is some of the best stupid bad fun I've ever watched. Edit: I just found it like that...
The old Dueces will burn cooking oil, haha, they work fairly well off that actually, especially of you cut it with some diesel or kerosene…they run really well actually and a little cooler, haha. Just makes starting in cold weather worse.
2:26:10 Just fill the tyres with concrete ... no more bursting! 2:26:40 @Tex My Passat is 35 years old ... and although it has problems in idle ... it is an awesome car, much better than our newer Golf Plus from only 15 years or so ago. It also looks not worth stealing ...
And you know I only one truly bad experience with flying commercial, and was cause delta lost my baggage for like 3 weeks…yeah they sent it to England, when I was going back to NC…lol. At least they found it, and actually got it back to me, in like 3 days, once they found it…they even got it delivered to my unit while I was there, so, I say good on them, once they found it, they put forth effort to get it back. That was in 09 when I was headed back. After leave was over. Good thing I could do with out some of my civvies, lol. Other than that. Was just typical stuff, like winter storms delaying flights, or whatever. But common. not bad experiences, due to a particular carrier. Guess I got lucky. Lol.
Oh guys, a guy like r4nger or something has made a bridging truck…you have to get his truck mod, then you can get the Bridget section mod, and deploy it…but if you leave the map…you need to pack it up, or something or it causes problems, and can possibly launch you into space. Lol.
And hey man…Clancy wrote some awesome, very entertaining books, not that they’re accurate…but entertaining, oh yeah, say what you will about him, he’s a good, on the entertaining sense writer
Door Bridge 2, the Doorening. And 2:22:35 almost got me dying, then Dep started making that noise and I was crying from laughing.

In this episode ... Dep learns crane Kung Fu!
