To cover my butt with DOT, I always put a "not for hire" sign somewhere on my truck when I was using it for personal use as opposed to business. A lot of those officers don't necessarily know all of the rules, even though they think they do.
Yes, but they’re such arrogant assholes like they’re going to win a prize that they’ve caught you. More often than not. They are wrong. I swear they get a prize for being petty.
@@kennethbrown8723 😂😂 that's the funniest dumbest shit I've read in awhile..... has nothing to do with safety....it's all about money.... there nothing but revenue collectors....
It's extremely educational to the public in general to put a spotlight on what actually transpires in "safety" checks and roadside inspections. In 1983 I was held on the west Truckee POE scale pad for over 45min (backed up traffic for over one mile) while the officer was trying to find a regulation to cite me for having 37,000 lbs on a new Ravens spread axle (40,000 legal without permits). Said he'd never seen a spread before and it was surely illegal. Measured and weighed my trailer every which way--finally sent me down the road saying he just couldn't figure out how to write it up. And that's just one of a thousand memories. Basically revenue collectors. Tip on tie-wraps--the sharp edges will eat into airlines--add a protective sleeve and tie it back. Enjoy your videos and community involvement. Great work.
I've been all over the world...back when I flew cargo Jumbo jets for a living. The FAA forces pilots to retire after at age 60. My favorite route was flying back and forth between Hawaii and Australia...I live in Florida. The reason this was my favorite route was because I could Skydive in Hawaii and Australia on my days off...waiting for the aircraft to come back for us to fly it! It was a tuff life...but someone had to do it. Blue Sky's.
Having been through numerous intense laboratory inspections by AASHTO, ASTM, CALTRANS, etc., I absolutely LOVE IT when an inspector gets caught in an error. Good on you!
But the officer wasn't in error. It is logged as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) and still gets logged as such in line 1, off duty. The log book was required.
The military uses a paint called CARC (Chemical Agent Resistant Coating) It's supposed to be chemical resistant for easier decontamination. They don't dismount wheels when they CARC vehicles, nor do they bother to mask anything. That flaking on the sidewall of the tires is likely as not CARC. It'll flake off on it's own, dont' try to remove it yourself. Inhalation of the aerosol or particulate is very not good. But that's a helluva stout trailer. Those would be dragged behind HEMTT, those big 8 wheel cargo trucks with the 4 wheel steer front axle systems.
And yes, you are correct. That trailer was never drawn by a line unit, since it's got the depot marking on the back. If it would have gone to a unit, it would have been marked with a unit identifying bumper number. The trailer is designed for the MLRS pod and would carry 4 at a time, with 176 inches x 96 inches floor space.
When I saw the trailer, I thought exactly the same thing; TRAVEL TRAILER! That frame is heavy enough to carry a three bedroom house if you could make it fit. Good score Casey!😉👍
Lol, I'm laughing when I hear you talk about getting it re-inspected to get a perfect score. You put me in mind of weapons cleaning in the military, and there was an axiom that I swear applied in every unit I ever served him. That Axiom is "no weapon shall be cleaned before it's time". If they allotted three hours for cleaning weapons, and yours was awesome clean in 30 minutes, they would check it and find some spec of dirt or oil somewhere on the weapon, and tell you to go clean it some more. The same weapon with no further cleaning checked at the end of the three-hour window was nicely cleaned. Point being, if they want to find something they will, and I wouldn't gamble on going back and getting a perfect score, when you might get another hit.

Thanks for making great content. I appreciate you and your work, wish I could support you more but I'm retired and don't have any extra cash. I like and try to comment in positive fashion.

DOT inspectors hate being proved wrong and will look harder to find faults. On the other hand, many state inspectors look for ways to pass you on inspection because it keeps their roads safer. The best feeling I ever had was getting a sticker from an inspection on the way home. That truck was going to auction and my boss loved the extra he got. Too many great ideas for your trailer Casey, just a damn shame our government wasted so much money on them. With your off-grid power station and panels you are over half way there already with; power, heat, AC and the fridge.

Casey, I absolutely love your videos. You are so honest and upfront and don’t hold back. I admire that very much. When you’re right, you’re right. Take care, stay safe.
I will not miss one of your videos. You are so knowledgeable in what you do and I have learned so much about towing and hauling. Keep those videos coming.
That's actually a pretty neat trailer - it will be super interesting to see what your future plans for it turn out. Thanks for taking us along for a fun ride, Casey, and it's great to see the camper doing exactly what you wanted it to do!!
Casey, I'm glad to see you are safe!! On Thursday I was driving back from my vacation in Nevada and was in the backup on I-5 Northbound after the accident that took the lives of 7 people, it must have been a horrific scene for those who witnessed it as well as those who were in the cleanup crew. Don't know how often you travel that stretch just wanted to let you and others know to be safe out on our Highways, it may or may not be your last day on this earth. Stay safe out there!!
This is why I love your channel. You get all around eastern Oregon, and sometimes also to the unknown parts of the north eastern corner of California. Your footage from the countryside around Herlong, CA, is priceless. Such beautiful landscapes. Cheers,
Welcome to farm life. 🙂 Farm wagons for years have had steerable front axles. Not only does it keep it more compact, but because the wheels don't move, they are more stable as well. I learned to back one of those up by the time I was 10. You just have to figure out the extra bend in the system from a 2 wheel trailer. The short tongue and long body of your truck would make that very challenging. What is even more impressive is that I saw a neighbor back up 2 wagons hitched together one time. That takes 100x more skill. I've never even attempted that. Looking forward to see what you do with it.
I live in Australia and my brother is a heavy vehicle mechanic and driver with licenses up to a Heavy Wrecker towing a complete road train (wrecker + prime mover and 3 trailers) Some years ago he was driving a twin steer freezer truck. So that has 4 axles, with the then limit of 6 tons per axle -- total 24 tons. He went through the inspection station with a full load. He was out of the truck doing what ever he had to do and was about to get back in the truck when the inspector told him not to touch the truck, He was about to make a smart comment when he saw what the inspector was pointing at. The scales were reading 23.995 ton. If he had touched the truck it would have been overweight and he would have been fined something like $2,000. It does show that some of the inspectors were human.
Told a story years ago by an Inspector, since retired. Australia Post pulled onto the weighbridge at Monteith. Volvo big banger. Went 6.6 tonne on the steer axle. End of the friendship was 6.5 tonne. Inspector in question looks at the driver. Younger lady, who would be battling to weigh 50 kg, dripping wet! Opening comment to the driver: "You weigh 120 kg?" Said with a big smile, nodding head and a wink. Driver caught on - Yes, am 120 kg! PASS!!! Paul Johnstone story would be from the pre 2000 era. Eastern States. Twin steer axle group would be allowed 9 or 10 tonne, depending on load sharing or not load sharing. Tandem drive, 8 tyre tandem would be 15 tonne, giving 24 tonne. However, do not know of any enforcement weighbridges that weighed in 5 kg divisions. To my knowledge all of the enforcement weighbridges were either 10 or 20 kg readings. So, would like to know where this weighbridge was! And, saying tons, makes it prior to 1973 or so, as all the weighing equipment was converted to metric, from tons, cwt and quarters to tonnes and kg.
@@111jacare Marulan weigh station. Would have been in the 1980's. I had to take a bit of poetic license and use whole numbers so that non Australians would get the concept. It was frozen food and the exact weights of the items were known and the person making the order were supposed to make up the order with a safe margin on weight. Someone could not be bothered doing their job. One of the suppliers in Sydney had a weigh bridge and all trucks were weighed before they could leave. These days my brother does Brisbane to Sydney with a B Double carrying overnight express. Many bad stories about the frozen food place.
I had an young officer pull me over for a similar thing. He said I needed a log book as well, I had the thought to look it up on the spot with him. Needless to say he learned something that day. I have complete respect for them and respected him even more for correcting his mistake. I could never be a police officer and admire and respect them considerably!
If you use plywood or whatever to protect the bed of the trailer this would be great for the wilderness clean ups. They could use the skidsteer forks to just pile a couple tons of stuff in it.
I registered my 1964 IH Loadstar 1800 with Perkins 6.354 turbo diesel as an RV. Was a dumping grain truck before I got it; was used once a year at harvest time to haul grain from the fields and parked in a dry wooden barn for decades in-between. So it's in unbelievable shape and has been shown some love over the decades. I bought it at an annual farm consignment sale the day after Thanksgiving. Was not advertised and bought spur of the moment for less than scrap price. Was cold that day, but the engine still started without a preheater and I drove it away before auction even ended. Has a 25,500 gvw; so it's under the 26k that can create other issues. Has hydraulic cylinder power steering and full air brakes. The compressed air system will come in handy when switching to military axles. Can use the 2 speed axle shifter to control the lockers. May add a fifth wheel to pull a camper or trailer. But I also found a Holmes 600 wrecker frame that should work nicely if I convert to the military axles and tires. Since I don't use it for commercial work, no CDL or weigh stations are necessary. Good mix of strong frame without a lot of weight to make trail travel easier. Make life easier for my K30 with Holmes 500 when dealing with heavy loads.
I enjoyed this video a lot. Especially the part where you got home safely to be with your family. Very important. Your idea of what to do with the trailer is good. It is well suited to that use.
Looks like you really scored with that trailer, Casey, especially with all of the brand new unexpected goodies! Your idea for the super-camper sounds great too, but it'll take a bit of planning. I'm sure we're all now itching to see you get started on the project but don't rush it just for our sakes. And don't forget all of the neat EcoFlow stuff you can incorporate! :-)
It looks like a portable stage, with the one side folded down. My wife was heavily involved with raising money for the American Cancer Society for about thirteen years. We rented stages most every year. They were huge pain, because they had to be loaded up from the rental company and unloaded onsite. Assembly was a bear as well, and afterwards the tear down another couple of hours or hard work. I wished a trailer like yours was part of the rental company’s inventory. Your own children maybe involved in activities like 4th of July Parades, another ideal use for such a trailer. With that in mind you might want build the cabin in such a way that a fork lift can remove the cabin if needed. Keep on Trucking and enjoy every minute.
I really like that trailer man, and absolutely LOVE the idea of building a camper on it. Mobile homes are just such a sweet concept to me! Hope you got that all sorted out brother!
Hey Casey, My sister retired from the Depo a couple years ago. Her Husband (my brother-in-law) still works there. He is a heavy equipment mechanic. He is a third generation GS employee at Herlong. They live in Reno-Stead west of the airport. Let me know if you need an inside line on what is coming up for auction there. Regards, Bruce Paxton, Palmdale, CA.
Hey Bruce . . . If you wouldn’t mind giving me a heads up, if any shipping containers are coming up for auction. I could use a couple over at my ranch in Sierra Valley! Thx Brian
That camper was definitely worth getting. What a peaceful place to sleep with a beautiful view in the morning. That trailer is really nice and all the goodies you got was an added bonus. I like your future plan for it and think it would be great for building a cabin that's portable.
When you get back home, you can put pipe installation around your hoses and it won’t rub through like that on all your equipment. It’s real cheap stuff.
This type of trailer is known as a dog trailer as opposed to the centre axle (or couple of axles grouped) pig trailer. If caravans/pull behind was built on these types of configuration trailers, it would be a lot more stable. Nice pick Casey! Many happy miles!
Guessing you're an Aussie, as that's what they call them, in the US we'd typically call it a pup, full-trailer is also acceptable (as opposed to a semi-trailer, a trailer that cannot roll without a tractor or converter dolly), or a pull trailer. We refer to the combination as a truck and trailer or truck and pup, distinct from a semi or tractor-trailer, Europeans refer to them as tandems, and Aussies call them truck and dogs. From what I've seen, the Kiwis adopted the American vernacular of truck and trailer.
Hey Casey! I used to work in DRMO in NSA Mechanicsburg, Pa. You probably already know this but, if you didn't get a parts list, save those tickets and labels on each of the parts for future reference. It has your nomenclature, national stock number (nsn) and part number in case you ever need an exact replacement. I can't wait to see what you do with the trailer!
Loved the picture of "Papa Smurf" and the Tru-Hitch I thought I was the only one in the world that operated one of those. Pain in the behind to load but they tow incredibly well.
Casey thanks for taking us along with you on your trip, sorry to hear about the unexpected visit from the officer visit but you have that already figured out ! Thanks again!
Hey Casey I always enjoy your videos. I like the new trailer in my opinion you definitely got a great deal with the extra brand new stuff you found that you don't have to buy for it.
Really nice trailer Casey , when I first saw it my thought was built a cabin on the trailer bed. I am glad that you was able to find and purchase the trailer , I am sure that you will find something to do with it. 👍
Casey, as you know California DOT inspectors can be butt heads. I had a co driver get pulled pulled in many years ago. I was in the sleeper. They inspected the truck and trailer. They wrote him up for a cracked equalizer on the trailer. Now this trailer was only a couple years old. I got out of the bunk and looked at it and it was only a scratch in the paint. That woman REFUSED to take that ticket back and absolutely swore it was a crack
DOT .CARB, DMV LAPD . Welcome to Killafornia ... you can have the proof in your hand that they are wrong don't matter this people will make you lose time and state resources before they admit their mistakes....
I was thinking the same exact thing as you about a camper/cabin, as soon as I looked at it…. Building that out would be GREAT CONTENT.!!!! Love your channel and what you do for people,and our environment.. Been a sub for a very long time. I don’t miss a video…!! Love your content. Watching you building out that trailer would be awesome stuff to watch. I can’t imagine the awesome ideas people would give you to build that trailer out. It would be worth every second you spend on it. Everybody likes tiny houses and cool off grid stuff. It would make awesome Contant I wouldn’t miss one. Bless you and thank you for what you do.
As I said before, we passed you on 395 northbound just north of Alturas, red Tacoma . Outstanding idea putting the camper on the bed of the rollback as a sleeper. Stay safe and we'll see you next time.
When any commercial vehicle is lettered, displaying a business/ company name, it is legally being operated as a commercial use vehicle. HERE is the loophole ➰. Cover the business name on the door when using truck for Personal use with a magnetic sign that says Not For Hire/ Private use 👍
My driver was tired of wasting time at the scales, so I applied for and got a transponder for the truck. From that time on the scale house would green light him before he ever got to the scales. He loved being able to drive by and not even slow down.
You learn something new every day. Thanks for the logbook info. Now that I'm retiring I just need to leave Ca. so I can avoid CARB outlawing my rig with 60k original miles. In Ca. I can only drive 600 miles a year.
There is a TON of stuff the military has to have in case they need it. That's an important part of their mission. Not to wait a year for somebody to build the factory, so they can build the equipment they needed a year ago. If they never have to use it, that's actually good news.
I like how he says that he's not using his vehicle for business use while he's actually going to pick up a trailer for his business and he's filming a RUclips video the whole time for his business.. this is the very definition of a business trip
You are correct about using your truck for "personal use", which does not effect your HOS, but you are required to log it on line 1 - off duty and in the notations, mark it as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) with start and end points as usual and include those miles as personal use, so they don't count when you file IFTA.
Wrong. PC is when you use the vehicle privately while participating in commerce. 390.3(f)(3) very clearly states that when used non commercially to transport your own personal property, you are exempt from ALL logging requirements
People wonder why our Defense budget is $831 billion for 2024. They buy this stuff at 1000 times marked up then sell it as salvage 10k times marked down below what they paid for it.
Good on you for not arguing with the officer on the side of the road. Knowing when to pick your battles, and how to approach those topics is important.
I think your cabin idea is great! I think you should make time to do that and not just dream. Look at the other things you’ve done that show how talented you are. I think you can do it.
I really enjoy watching your uploads Casey and the first thing I thought of is that the trailer you just bought would make a perfect platform for a mobile bug out cabin. Great minds think alike! You have to make that happen! All the best.
I used to deliver boat trailers out of Arkansas. We drove Dodge 1 ton duallies. The only state that gave me a problem was Oregon. One truck had a pickup bed the other had a flatbed, they were identical but Oregon classed the one with the pickup bed different and we were often overweight in it due to that state classification.
Good job knowing the fmcsa rules but opting to not argue about it there and choosing to debate it later I have found that to always be the best option.
Good buy! Good idea of the cabin. A tiny house would definitely be a handy thing in case of natural disasters, such as fires and floods, u just load up and family fully equipped.
Anything DOT puts on your CSA, never , I mean NEVER goes away. I’ve had them give me a ticket for a air leak, it wasn’t a air leak, it was my cabs self leveling system. Even had the Kenworth’s shop mechanic put it in writing and they still couldn’t take it off. Was told in court that everything stays on your CSA. It’s a stupid rule.
Hi Casey, could you lift the camper a little, and move it forward, so that it extends over the cab? That would save space on the truck bed. Also I think its time you added a couple of winches under the bed, and possible one at the front! Great Video, keep them coming!
I’d like your idea about the bug out cabin, it looks like a good size and you could actually do a lot with it. It could definitely handle the weight and the size of a substantial cabin, draw it up on paper to get keep track of all your idea, I’d love to see it.
Those DOT's are rough. I used to use an ambulance for my construction truck. Got roadside pulled over and guy wrote up 16 violations and a stop use sticker, I was a single mile from my house and he was going to tow me, I had get on my knees.
Very informative about truck inspection and sticker requirements! Not sure how the officer was not aware of the non commercial private usage clause permitting the exemption from logbook requirement. You would think that this is not that rare of a situation , especially since he is assigned to do inspections! Oh well, at least you will not receive dings that can affect your insurance rate.
As I explained to Casey ----------- You are correct about using your truck for "personal use", which does not effect your HOS, but you are required to log it on line 1 - off duty and in the notations, mark it as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) with start and end points as usual and include those miles as personal use, so they don't count when you file IFTA.
Before you said anything about a cabin I seen how wide this trailer was and thinking the same thing for living quarters. The fact that the trailer steers, and is on four wheels, makes it ideal because one does not have to worry about tonged jack as well as many other aspects of a standard camper. I would put some stiff legs (levelers) on the corners for leveling if needed. Now that i've see this thing, I want one too.
So, before building a cabin on that trailer, build a frame slide out for a porch. Then build the cabin above the porch.The trailer is way over built for a cabin, so take advantage of that and add some more weight by building a slide out porch bed.
Yup! you've got to watch those license plate lights they're a key piece of vehicle safety! You are definitely putting your life in jeopardy by not having it working properly!
You may have to contact the cop who pulled you over and gave you grief. This has certainly stirred up the conversation on log books and RUclips channel, lol.
What I told Casey -------------- You are correct about using your truck for "personal use", which does not effect your HOS, but you are required to log it on line 1 - off duty and in the notations, mark it as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) with start and end points as usual and include those miles as personal use, so they don't count when you file IFTA.
That is a cool looking trailer. I imagine they sell pretty quickly. I was thinking that would make a great base for a tiny house, it would certainly be bigger. I hope you get things squared with the violations/insurance. Insurance is too expensive without help. Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Stay safe and GOD bless
Sounds like you want to build a tiny house on that trailer. A friend did that on an old enclosed trailer he originally purchased to move himself and his wife to Florida. After they were settled in, he stripped it down to the frame and built the house on it. Came out really nice and they now use it as a guess house and air BNB income when no one is planned to be visiting. I envision a nice cabin on that military trailer. Good luck, can't wait until you have the time to do that series of content. Stay safe.
All truckers should boycott Commiefornia especially with their new age law on rigs. I can’t count the number of times I was inspected at the Barstow scale.
Don‘t come to Europe then. You will get controlled at least twice a week. No log book? No driving. There is no „private“ reason for anything on a 7.5+ tons vehicle. And you are certainly not allowed to drive on weekends and regional holidays. Only with special, expensive permit. No driving more than 9 hours with mandatory breaks in between etc. pp.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 In most european countries youre allowed to drive on weekends and even on those with regulation, youre allowed to drive almost all saturday and partially sundays. And controls only happen on outer european borders, theyre very rare inside the countries themself when taking the amount of trucks in consideration.
@@tobiasmetzger4522 You have obviously never been on the road and been controlled, maybe in germany nobody gives a damn? Here in Eastern Europe we do. We have 3 big truck control places on freeways and the Autobahn in only 50km around here. And they are used regularly. Mostly for Romanian and Iranian trucks, but there are still many Hungarians and Belarusian on the street with defective brakes which are being controlled - regularly.
This is the video where Mr. LaDelle not only picks up the mystery trailer (since we have no good idea what on earth he’s gonna do with it), but also has a fit of righteousness about the necessities of a road book…
I've driven my 99 pete, with a camper or gooseneck trailer everywhere, non commercial class A, no log no medical card, no hos I own everything and not making money , you are correct with that regulation. I keep a folder with important papers in it , a copy of that regulation is it, never had a issue
If you build a cabin on the trailer, build it with a 3 layer wall on one side. Hinge 1 at the top and 1 at the bottom so you can fold them out to form an outside roofed deck with removable support posts and legs. You can sit out on your front porch and enjoy the evenings even when raining. All you need are a few lawn chairs.
A slide pode on each side of your future bugout camper trailer b nice, There's just no end to how cool that thing can end up except for money..... nice buy mate.
Yes, they are so worried about our truck being road worthy, but most roads are not road worthy. And throw the def and all the other “improvements” that now plague our trucks it’s not what it used to be. Stay safe out there!!
Bringing your own bed and pantry, and waking up to a nice sunrise and birds chirping: thé best way to go! Many safe travels, Casey.

Casey, I absolutely love your videos. You are so honest and upfront and don’t hold back. I admire that very much. When you’re right, you’re right. Take care, stay safe.
Nice trip and that story is top notch 🇺🇸
Hey Casey - those LED taillights on the trailer are multi-voltage and will run on anything from about 8v to something like 36v.
8 to 36?? Thats some serious range! Gotta love some Light Emitting Diodes!
He wrote the ticket to justify his claim you were commercial.
Casey you are a trip! 😅 Thank you for taking us on your little adventure to pick up that awesome trailer
I will not miss one of your videos. You are so knowledgeable in what you do and I have learned so much about towing and hauling. Keep those videos coming.
Exactly what I thought you were going to do with it. Can't wait to see the final build.
Very informative ! Well done from Canada!🇨🇦
That's actually a pretty neat trailer - it will be super interesting to see what your future plans for it turn out. Thanks for taking us along for a fun ride, Casey, and it's great to see the camper doing exactly what you wanted it to do!!
That would be an awesome excursion type vehicle. That would be a fabulous build out. Good buy, Casey! ❤ to the family
Casey, I'm glad to see you are safe!! On Thursday I was driving back from my vacation in Nevada and was in the backup on I-5 Northbound after the accident that took the lives of 7 people, it must have been a horrific scene for those who witnessed it as well as those who were in the cleanup crew.
Don't know how often you travel that stretch just wanted to let you and others know to be safe out on our Highways, it may or may not be your last day on this earth. Stay safe out there!!
This is why I love your channel. You get all around eastern Oregon, and sometimes also to the unknown parts of the north eastern corner of California. Your footage from the countryside around Herlong, CA, is priceless. Such beautiful landscapes. Cheers,
Welcome to farm life. 🙂 Farm wagons for years have had steerable front axles. Not only does it keep it more compact, but because the wheels don't move, they are more stable as well. I learned to back one of those up by the time I was 10. You just have to figure out the extra bend in the system from a 2 wheel trailer. The short tongue and long body of your truck would make that very challenging. What is even more impressive is that I saw a neighbor back up 2 wagons hitched together one time. That takes 100x more skill. I've never even attempted that. Looking forward to see what you do with it.
Ill try the double trailer thing one day. In Britain, only a showman can pull 2 trailers, so have never experienced it.
They’re called auto steer (as in automobile). My dad backed a double hay wagon hitch on the first try. Didn’t think he could ever do it again.
I live in Australia and my brother is a heavy vehicle mechanic and driver with licenses up to a Heavy Wrecker towing a complete road train (wrecker + prime mover and 3 trailers) Some years ago he was driving a twin steer freezer truck. So that has 4 axles, with the then limit of 6 tons per axle -- total 24 tons. He went through the inspection station with a full load. He was out of the truck doing what ever he had to do and was about to get back in the truck when the inspector told him not to touch the truck, He was about to make a smart comment when he saw what the inspector was pointing at. The scales were reading 23.995 ton. If he had touched the truck it would have been overweight and he would have been fined something like $2,000. It does show that some of the inspectors were human.
That's an awesome save by that inspector
Told a story years ago by an Inspector, since retired. Australia Post pulled onto the weighbridge at Monteith. Volvo big banger. Went 6.6 tonne on the steer axle. End of the friendship was 6.5 tonne. Inspector in question looks at the driver. Younger lady, who would be battling to weigh 50 kg, dripping wet! Opening comment to the driver: "You weigh 120 kg?" Said with a big smile, nodding head and a wink. Driver caught on - Yes, am 120 kg! PASS!!!
Paul Johnstone story would be from the pre 2000 era. Eastern States. Twin steer axle group would be allowed 9 or 10 tonne, depending on load sharing or not load sharing. Tandem drive, 8 tyre tandem would be 15 tonne, giving 24 tonne. However, do not know of any enforcement weighbridges that weighed in 5 kg divisions. To my knowledge all of the enforcement weighbridges were either 10 or 20 kg readings. So, would like to know where this weighbridge was! And, saying tons, makes it prior to 1973 or so, as all the weighing equipment was converted to metric, from tons, cwt and quarters to tonnes and kg.
@@111jacare Marulan weigh station. Would have been in the 1980's. I had to take a bit of poetic license and use whole numbers so that non Australians would get the concept. It was frozen food and the exact weights of the items were known and the person making the order were supposed to make up the order with a safe margin on weight. Someone could not be bothered doing their job. One of the suppliers in Sydney had a weigh bridge and all trucks were weighed before they could leave. These days my brother does Brisbane to Sydney with a B Double carrying overnight express. Many bad stories about the frozen food place.
Nah, if he were human it would have been the spirit of the law versus the letter of the law. Also no DOT officer is human.
I had an young officer pull me over for a similar thing. He said I needed a log book as well, I had the thought to look it up on the spot with him. Needless to say he learned something that day. I have complete respect for them and respected him even more for correcting his mistake. I could never be a police officer and admire and respect them considerably!
Good thing too is he won't (hopefully) try that on another poor sap
If you use plywood or whatever to protect the bed of the trailer this would be great for the wilderness clean ups.
They could use the skidsteer forks to just pile a couple tons of stuff in it.
Ideally for the clean up jobs you want self-unloading, either a dump trailer or a roll-off bin with doors.
I registered my 1964 IH Loadstar 1800 with Perkins 6.354 turbo diesel as an RV.
Was a dumping grain truck before I got it; was used once a year at harvest time to haul grain from the fields and parked in a dry wooden barn for decades in-between.
So it's in unbelievable shape and has been shown some love over the decades.
I bought it at an annual farm consignment sale the day after Thanksgiving. Was not advertised and bought spur of the moment for less than scrap price. Was cold that day, but the engine still started without a preheater and I drove it away before auction even ended.
Has a 25,500 gvw; so it's under the 26k that can create other issues.
Has hydraulic cylinder power steering and full air brakes.
The compressed air system will come in handy when switching to military axles.
Can use the 2 speed axle shifter to control the lockers.
May add a fifth wheel to pull a camper or trailer.
But I also found a Holmes 600 wrecker frame that should work nicely if I convert to the military axles and tires.
Since I don't use it for commercial work, no CDL or weigh stations are necessary.
Good mix of strong frame without a lot of weight to make trail travel easier.
Make life easier for my K30 with Holmes 500 when dealing with heavy loads.
I enjoyed this video a lot. Especially the part where you got home safely to be with your family. Very important. Your idea of what to do with the trailer is good. It is well suited to that use.
Looks like you really scored with that trailer, Casey, especially with all of the brand new unexpected goodies! Your idea for the super-camper sounds great too, but it'll take a bit of planning. I'm sure we're all now itching to see you get started on the project but don't rush it just for our sakes. And don't forget all of the neat EcoFlow stuff you can incorporate! :-)
Hi Casey; great purchase & spectacular swag; courtesy of the military and the government!! 🎉
It looks like a portable stage, with the one side folded down. My wife was heavily involved with raising money for the American Cancer Society for about thirteen years. We rented stages most every year. They were huge pain, because they had to be loaded up from the rental company and unloaded onsite. Assembly was a bear as well, and afterwards the tear down another couple of hours or hard work. I wished a trailer like yours was part of the rental company’s inventory.
Your own children maybe involved in activities like 4th of July Parades, another ideal use for such a trailer. With that in mind you might want build the cabin in such a way that a fork lift can remove the cabin if needed.
Keep on Trucking and enjoy every minute.
I really like that trailer man, and absolutely LOVE the idea of building a camper on it. Mobile homes are just such a sweet concept to me! Hope you got that all sorted out brother!
You're opening statement is like my life mantra - THERE IS NO BOX!!!!
Hey Casey, My sister retired from the Depo a couple years ago. Her Husband (my brother-in-law) still works there. He is a heavy equipment mechanic. He is a third generation GS employee at Herlong. They live in Reno-Stead west of the airport. Let me know if you need an inside line on what is coming up for auction there. Regards, Bruce Paxton, Palmdale, CA.
I'm not sure Casey needs any more encouragement 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hey Bruce . . . If you wouldn’t mind giving me a heads up, if any shipping containers are coming up for auction. I could use a couple over at my ranch in Sierra Valley! Thx Brian
@@5TruckBoss I need some too! Up in Canada though lol
I can see why you love that trailer!
Now, if you want to scare someone, pull into a tire shop and ask them for an alignment 😂
That camper was definitely worth getting. What a peaceful place to sleep with a beautiful view in the morning. That trailer is really nice and all the goodies you got was an added bonus. I like your future plan for it and think it would be great for building a cabin that's portable.
It’s like a deck when you step out the door! Just need a railing, stairs, lounge chairs, bbq lol
When you get back home, you can put pipe installation around your hoses and it won’t rub through like that on all your equipment. It’s real cheap stuff.
Great idea with the trailer cabin, and what a bonus with all the gear in the cubby. God bless
This type of trailer is known as a dog trailer as opposed to the centre axle (or couple of axles grouped) pig trailer. If caravans/pull behind was built on these types of configuration trailers, it would be a lot more stable. Nice pick Casey! Many happy miles!
Guessing you're an Aussie, as that's what they call them, in the US we'd typically call it a pup, full-trailer is also acceptable (as opposed to a semi-trailer, a trailer that cannot roll without a tractor or converter dolly), or a pull trailer. We refer to the combination as a truck and trailer or truck and pup, distinct from a semi or tractor-trailer, Europeans refer to them as tandems, and Aussies call them truck and dogs. From what I've seen, the Kiwis adopted the American vernacular of truck and trailer.
You could use that trailer as a bandstand for your punk rock group "Casey and the Never Said I Was Good at This Orchestra"
Hey Casey! I used to work in DRMO in NSA Mechanicsburg, Pa. You probably already know this but, if you didn't get a parts list, save those tickets and labels on each of the parts for future reference. It has your nomenclature, national stock number (nsn) and part number in case you ever need an exact replacement. I can't wait to see what you do with the trailer!
Been to your joint there in Mech 😊many times.
No kidding I'm 15 minutes from there
No kidding I'm 15 minutes from there
Loved the picture of "Papa Smurf" and the Tru-Hitch I thought I was the only one in the world that operated one of those. Pain in the behind to load but they tow incredibly well.
Played Hurlong in football many moons ago.... Susanville is a quaint little town to pass through...... thx for the drive down memory lane
Casey thanks for taking us along with you on your trip, sorry to hear about the unexpected visit from the officer visit but you have that already figured out ! Thanks again!
Hey Casey I always enjoy your videos. I like the new trailer in my opinion you definitely got a great deal with the extra brand new stuff you found that you don't have to buy for it.
Really nice trailer Casey , when I first saw it my thought was built a cabin on the trailer bed. I am glad that you was able to find and purchase the trailer , I am sure that you will find something to do with it. 👍
I love your idea with the off road cabin, that looks like a perfect deep woods trailer
Looks like they left you all the BII!!! Being an 88M, none of the trucks that I drive have all the BII. That's crazy and an awesome find!
Casey, as you know California DOT inspectors can be butt heads. I had a co driver get pulled pulled in many years ago. I was in the sleeper. They inspected the truck and trailer. They wrote him up for a cracked equalizer on the trailer. Now this trailer was only a couple years old. I got out of the bunk and looked at it and it was only a scratch in the paint. That woman REFUSED to take that ticket back and absolutely swore it was a crack
DOT .CARB, DMV LAPD . Welcome to Killafornia ... you can have the proof in your hand that they are wrong don't matter this people will make you lose time and state resources before they admit their mistakes....
Ask me about Truckee California and the treason committed by authorities there that I can testify to
I've been there with some of those so called law people, that know everything about everything and know nothing at all
@@kelvintorrence5994 they make up their own laws on the go
That's when you call the U.S. Marshall's office and report them for fraud.
I was thinking the same exact thing as you about a camper/cabin, as soon as I looked at it…. Building that out would be GREAT CONTENT.!!!! Love your channel and what you do for people,and our environment.. Been a sub for a very long time. I don’t miss a video…!! Love your content. Watching you building out that trailer would be awesome stuff to watch. I can’t imagine the awesome ideas people would give you to build that trailer out. It would be worth every second you spend on it. Everybody likes tiny houses and cool off grid stuff. It would make awesome Contant I wouldn’t miss one. Bless you and thank you for what you do.
As I said before, we passed you on 395 northbound just north of Alturas, red Tacoma . Outstanding idea putting the camper on the bed of the rollback as a sleeper. Stay safe and we'll see you next time.
It looks so comfy and cozy in that little camper on the flatbed.
Around here we have a term for "Bugout Cabin". We call them an RV.
:). That is a really cool trailer!
Your adventures are always enjoyable. All through the video, I was wondering what you bought this trailer for and your idea sounds great.
When any commercial vehicle is lettered, displaying a business/ company name, it is legally being operated as a commercial use vehicle.
HERE is the loophole ➰.
Cover the business name on the door when using truck for Personal use with a magnetic sign that says
Not For Hire/ Private use 👍
My driver was tired of wasting time at the scales, so I applied for and got a transponder for the truck. From that time on the scale house would green light him before he ever got to the scales. He loved being able to drive by and not even slow down.
Lovely trailer with all the kit...awesome...glad youd a safe trip all round....stay safe
You learn something new every day. Thanks for the logbook info. Now that I'm retiring I just need to leave Ca. so I can avoid CARB outlawing my rig with 60k original miles. In Ca. I can only drive 600 miles a year.
That’s the government for you spend a fortune and then never use it
WAY more money than brains !
It was our money, what do they care?
Well said government dollars to good use
There is a TON of stuff the military has to have in case they need it. That's an important part of their mission. Not to wait a year for somebody to build the factory, so they can build the equipment they needed a year ago. If they never have to use it, that's actually good news.
"Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it."
That would make a sweet tiny home trailer.
I like how he says that he's not using his vehicle for business use while he's actually going to pick up a trailer for his business and he's filming a RUclips video the whole time for his business.. this is the very definition of a business trip
right if RUclips paid him anything then it's considered a business
Lick the boot some more
Very cool trailer! Great score on the new accessories as well.
Glad you found the regulation to fix that violation
You are correct about using your truck for "personal use", which does not effect your HOS, but you are required to log it on line 1 - off duty and in the notations, mark it as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) with start and end points as usual and include those miles as personal use, so they don't count when you file IFTA.
Wrong. PC is when you use the vehicle privately while participating in commerce. 390.3(f)(3) very clearly states that when used non commercially to transport your own personal property, you are exempt from ALL logging requirements
After 20 years of DOT and the motoring public, I quit running commercial vehicles. Just got to where it's not worth it.
they're nothing but armed revenuers...
People wonder why our Defense budget is $831 billion for 2024. They buy this stuff at 1000 times marked up then sell it as salvage 10k times marked down below what they paid for it.
Hey Casey, you could always use the trailer to haul junk and cars from out in the woods back to the dump site.
That's what I was thinking.
The system is so corrupt, would probably charge you with theft, etc, etc, etc.
Good on you for not arguing with the officer on the side of the road. Knowing when to pick your battles, and how to approach those topics is important.
I think your cabin idea is great! I think you should make time to do that and not just dream. Look at the other things you’ve done that show how talented you are. I think you can do it.
I really enjoy watching your uploads Casey and the first thing I thought of is that the trailer you just bought would make a perfect platform for a mobile bug out cabin. Great minds think alike! You have to make that happen! All the best.
I used to deliver boat trailers out of Arkansas. We drove Dodge 1 ton duallies. The only state that gave me a problem was Oregon. One truck had a pickup bed the other had a flatbed, they were identical but Oregon classed the one with the pickup bed different and we were often overweight in it due to that state classification.
That’s a federal regulation, not state.
Oregon just happened to enforce federal laws. Their specially appointed federal agents within the trucks division were go getters.
Good job knowing the fmcsa rules but opting to not argue about it there and choosing to debate it later I have found that to always be the best option.
I like the hose over a hose built that trailer I like your camper setup
Good buy! Good idea of the cabin. A tiny house would definitely be a handy thing in case of natural disasters, such as fires and floods, u just load up and family fully equipped.
Anything DOT puts on your CSA, never , I mean NEVER goes away. I’ve had them give me a ticket for a air leak, it wasn’t a air leak, it was my cabs self leveling system. Even had the Kenworth’s shop mechanic put it in writing and they still couldn’t take it off. Was told in court that everything stays on your CSA. It’s a stupid rule.
that's probably why alot of trucks won't go into California.
Yeah don't go to California not even in america 😂
Either you had a bad officer or your truck failed the leak test.
What was your airdrop rate with the truck off?
Depending on the severity, the CSA points are based on 1,2 or 3 years.
@@JohnnyD1993 air leak passed , he just heard it and wrote it up .
Hi Casey, could you lift the camper a little, and move it forward, so that it extends over the cab? That would save space on the truck bed. Also I think its time you added a couple of winches under the bed, and possible one at the front! Great Video, keep them coming!
Exhaust I think makes it too little to gain.
There is a height limit..
@@CaseyLaDelle those legs may not like that also, heard stories of them popping off at heights, more stable when down
@@owendodman3037 what legs?
@@CaseyLaDelle i’m not familiar with your camper, my parents winnebago has crank up legs on it to raise and lower it out of the truck bed
Nice ... and not such a bad spot. Use to deliver up there a long time ago... it's gorgeous.
I’d like your idea about the bug out cabin, it looks like a good size and you could actually do a lot with it. It could definitely handle the weight and the size of a substantial cabin, draw it up on paper to get keep track of all your idea, I’d love to see it.
Those DOT's are rough. I used to use an ambulance for my construction truck. Got roadside pulled over and guy wrote up 16 violations and a stop use sticker, I was a single mile from my house and he was going to tow me, I had get on my knees.
Dam dam dam
Very informative about truck inspection and sticker requirements! Not sure how the officer was not aware of the non commercial private usage clause permitting the exemption from logbook requirement. You would think that this is not that rare of a situation , especially since he is assigned to do inspections! Oh well, at least you will not receive dings that can affect your insurance rate.
it's commiefoolia, they probably exempted the exemption somehow/someway 🤣🤣 about like they've exempted themselves from having brains..
They simply don't care...hoping everyone just pays em
As I explained to Casey ----------- You are correct about using your truck for "personal use", which does not effect your HOS, but you are required to log it on line 1 - off duty and in the notations, mark it as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) with start and end points as usual and include those miles as personal use, so they don't count when you file IFTA.
holy cow never seen a trailer like that. Man that would be so useful.
Before you said anything about a cabin I seen how wide this trailer was and thinking the same thing for living quarters. The fact that the trailer steers, and is on four wheels, makes it ideal because one does not have to worry about tonged jack as well as many other aspects of a standard camper. I would put some stiff legs (levelers) on the corners for leveling if needed. Now that i've see this thing, I want one too.
So, before building a cabin on that trailer, build a frame slide out for a porch. Then build the cabin above the porch.The trailer is way over built for a cabin, so take advantage of that and add some more weight by building a slide out porch bed.
What did you pay for the trailer and how much weight is it rated to carry ?
Probably 5 tons or so. Tyres are the weakest link here.
Yup! you've got to watch those license plate lights they're a key piece of vehicle safety! You are definitely putting your life in jeopardy by not having it working properly!
You may have to contact the cop who pulled you over and gave you grief. This has certainly stirred up the conversation on log books and RUclips channel, lol.
What I told Casey -------------- You are correct about using your truck for "personal use", which does not effect your HOS, but you are required to log it on line 1 - off duty and in the notations, mark it as PC ( Personal Conveyance ) with start and end points as usual and include those miles as personal use, so they don't count when you file IFTA.
This was a very interesting video. The trailer looks amazingly useful.
Thanks
That is a cool looking trailer. I imagine they sell pretty quickly. I was thinking that would make a great base for a tiny house, it would certainly be bigger. I hope you get things squared with the violations/insurance. Insurance is too expensive without help. Always a pleasure to watch your videos. Stay safe and GOD bless
Wow I know the feeling, I’ve drove semi’s for 29 years it’s a shame but most cops don’t know all the laws 😮
"Northern California is one of the most beautiful places on Earth."
Its just such a shame its attached to Southern California.
FMSCA Owner Operator exemption. Very typical that cops do not know the laws they are enforcing.
That is not true. A more accurate statement would be they don't know "all" the laws.
@@davidclemens1578 they're not very knowledgeable of the ones they "know" either.
Awesome idea for off grid mobile “ bug out” cabin….liked that!
Sounds like you want to build a tiny house on that trailer. A friend did that on an old enclosed trailer he originally purchased to move himself and his wife to Florida. After they were settled in, he stripped it down to the frame and built the house on it. Came out really nice and they now use it as a guess house and air BNB income when no one is planned to be visiting. I envision a nice cabin on that military trailer. Good luck, can't wait until you have the time to do that series of content. Stay safe.
All truckers should boycott Commiefornia especially with their new age law on rigs. I can’t count the number of times I was inspected at the Barstow scale.
Don‘t come to Europe then. You will get controlled at least twice a week. No log book? No driving. There is no „private“ reason for anything on a 7.5+ tons vehicle. And you are certainly not allowed to drive on weekends and regional holidays. Only with special, expensive permit. No driving more than 9 hours with mandatory breaks in between etc. pp.
@@wolfgangpreier9160 In most european countries youre allowed to drive on weekends and even on those with regulation, youre allowed to drive almost all saturday and partially sundays. And controls only happen on outer european borders, theyre very rare inside the countries themself when taking the amount of trucks in consideration.
@@tobiasmetzger4522 Not with trucks with more than 7.5 tons.
@@tobiasmetzger4522 You have obviously never been on the road and been controlled, maybe in germany nobody gives a damn? Here in Eastern Europe we do.
We have 3 big truck control places on freeways and the Autobahn in only 50km around here. And they are used regularly. Mostly for Romanian and Iranian trucks, but there are still many Hungarians and Belarusian on the street with defective brakes which are being controlled - regularly.
This is the video where Mr. LaDelle not only picks up the mystery trailer (since we have no good idea what on earth he’s gonna do with it), but also has a fit of righteousness about the necessities of a road book…
I've driven my 99 pete, with a camper or gooseneck trailer everywhere, non commercial class A, no log no medical card, no hos I own everything and not making money , you are correct with that regulation. I keep a folder with important papers in it , a copy of that regulation is it, never had a issue
If you build a cabin on the trailer, build it with a 3 layer wall on one side. Hinge 1 at the top and 1 at the bottom so you can fold them out to form an outside roofed deck with removable support posts and legs. You can sit out on your front porch and enjoy the evenings even when raining. All you need are a few lawn chairs.
A slide pode on each side of your future bugout camper trailer b nice, There's just no end to how cool that thing can end up except for money..... nice buy mate.
You and Foresty Forest are my two favourite RUclips channels.
Keep it real Casey ❤🤗🥰
