Switch those out for logging trucks and you could be in my neck of the woods driving into Victoria!

I'd rather follow them uphill at 20, than be in front of them downhill at 60!

Yep, friend has relatives that work @ mines in SW VA.

Yessir! 20 up, 60 down.

 

[oldhippy]

No up 20. Down 20. Oversize loads, top heavy and lots of rollovers.

 

[Stormchase]

Fully loaded triple axles. They are heavy! Yeah you dont really want to be in front. and give lots of room if you are.

Speed of truck is very slow.
