He is hauling large ( 12" X 12" or larger) wooden timbers to the site where he will be loaded. These are used to park the crane on to give it a steady platform so it doesn't sink into soft soil.

@@guardrail2897 You're welcome. I drove over the road for 35 years, not heavy haul, but you can't help but learn a little bit about that stuff when you share the road with them and shoot the shit with them in the truck stops at night.

There was no safe place to pass in the mountains and no way I was going to ask him to pull over so I just dropped down to 5th gear and relaxed for a while. Had a nice chat on the CB radio,
Guardrail I imagine he is enroute to pick up his load or on his way home after a haul. I can guarantee you that with thirteen axles it was a HEAVY load.
I did heavy haul for twenty five years but the biggest I hauled was twenty eight feet wide and some loads only ninety feet long and pulled seven axle though I was overloaded a lot because the owner was to cheap to buy an eight axle. All in California. Once I grossed 114,000 on five axles out of San Diego.

@@jamescooper8152 It's being towed, just like all the other sections except the tractor. There's a Kenworth or Peterbilt tractor with 2 drive axles and a tag axle, then a 3 axle dolly, then an extended double drop "bridge" section which will carry the load the back of which is supported on a 3 axle dolly which is hooked to a 3 axle steerable dolly. The steerable dolly is steered by hydrolic rams ( you can see them attached to the top bend of the goose neck on the rear dolly and extending forward to the steerable dolly). The rear dolly does not provide pushing power. It has a small engine to provide power to the hydrolic pump to operate the hydrolic cylinders. That's what the man standing on the rear dolly is doing. As far as motive power this is a one engine rig.

Why doesn't he have "escort" cars? Not sure if that's what they're called, but the smaller trucks with lights and signage warning other cars to make space. Just curious.
He had one pilot vehicle in the front sitting around the corner , if you look as the heavy hauler starts to turn the corner his pilot vehicle pulls over into the opposite lanes to stop the on coming traffic to give him enough room for turning. As for having escort vehicles , it's not necessary to have them in the convoy if the heavy hauler doesn't have a load on it.

At 0:46 There is a red pick up on his left side and down the street he is turning into there is a yellow pick up blocking traffic at a cross walk and a cop car parked 1/2 way down the block on the left hand side, what do you suppose they are if not escorts? Do you think escorts just stay in line with the heavy hauler front and back? That's not how they do their job. In a city environment they block traffic to clear a path for the heavy hauler. Only on an open highway do they lead and follow front and back in a line. And you do not take a rig like that out on the public road without a permit.

lolololololol.. ive moved crains for 20 years.. lolololol.. that big of a trailer to move cribbing.. lolol.. either he just unloaded a big crain n counter weights.. or hes going to get
papaw W; Do you think he runs loaded all the time? He has to go empty to get loaded! He can't carry a load when he's going to get a load. It goes like this. He picks up a load and delivers it someplace else, called the destination. Then he goes empty to pick up another load to deliver somewhere else. He is then empty and has to travel empty to pick up another load, see? By the way, are you fucking loaded?
Funny how spotters think they own the road, especially jumping in front of that last car. I generally just go around them.. Of course they honk and get pissed, but that's all they can do. I wave..
That Oversize Load sign is a bit of an understatement.
I’ve never seen one like this before, that’s crazy, damn good driver too

Maybe they dropped off the big thing and are just bringing that last trailer piece back.

WOW what a truck drivey😮😊
Most likely that town has really strict weight restrictions. That would explain the need for the extra axles.
Unnecessary but very cool. I wanna see a parallel park

That seems ridiculous when you can haul it in segments. Unless the haul back is on the same route and their making sure it's capable.
