RE: More pics from Troutman and near disaster

Jay I have no idea, probably operator problem . But no matter .No body got hurt and we didn`t loose it completely. I can see it going across the interstate and hitting something or someone. Thank god it didn`t. All is well now just trying to put another pig tail on the trailer .

Neil,

Glad to hear that neither you nor your son were hurt, nor anyone else. :) And also that the damage wasn't too bad.

That being said: I think you need to get to the bottom of why this happened.

It is clearly not equipment failure because this is finest equipment available. And it cannot be due to lack of maintainance because I've seen your deuce and trailer and they are clearly well maintained.

That leaves only one possibility: Sabotage! I seem to remember seeing photos posted on the internet of some Hooters Girls fooling around with your equipment. If I were you, I'd start there. (Let me know if I can help with any interrigations.)

:wink:

Russ I think I just might be able to handle the investigation ALL BY MY SELF :D . I`ve replaced the light on the truck. put the pigtail on the trailer. I still have a problem with the tail light on the rt. side of the trailer. I don`t know .Wiring is like Greek to me .
