    Hello again. Although I never got to drive by an old school, I did deliver to a jobsite that one of my brothers worked at. I had an escalator and he worked as an high voltage electrician . Have a good one.

      It all depends on the work! Hard to make interesting videos when I’m dispatched boring loads! Winter is coming also and it’s hard to film in winter. The cameras get dirty quickly. But I’m trying!!!

    Salut Lucky Banana,je voulais savoir,sur ton chargement,as-tu des glissières (teflon,fibre ou nylon),pour que les fils glissent sans accrocher ?

    Lachute is your hometown? How cool is that, my mother is from Lachute and I spent a couple of summers working at Lowe's Dairy and living with my grandparents who lived on Bethany right near Tessier where you turned. I have not been there in many years - it is almost unrecognizable now. :) Thanks for taking the time to make videos about heavy haul. They are entertaining and informative. Cheers!

      I've done some oversize, but no super loads. Air handling units in NYC at night, some military stuff, construction vehicles. Didn't want to do that on a regular basis because you know when you have to leave, but never when you'll be back. I loved it though. It always felt special.
      But I've also been stuck 5 days in the back of a small Staples in a subburb of Boston waiting for the Police escort's permit to do 1 mile inside the main city. Lol
      I enjoy your videos, reminds me of good times.

      I have broken many trailers over the years. Some were just unfortunate that age caught up with the equipment and the metal couldn’t support the weight anymore. Others were admittedly because the equipment was loaded over capacity. You get a lot of that in this business
