Nice pics. You should have heard our radio today, new guy in the water truck at a site and all the valves stuck open. Of course numb nuts would stop and maneuver and just sit with the PTO engaged, flooding the area. I think his rear is a few pounds lighter! I enjoyed running a water truck for a couple weeks while the other guy was on vacation. Whenever it go boring I'd see if I saw any friends in the yard waiting to get loaded, then I would proceed to spray their rig down, same treatment for ornery loader operators. :)

Heh heh, had to be careful not to hit the side spray by mistake and blow off the compactor operators hat. ;)

Oh mercy... I thought I was turning off a rear spray... and got the side spray... going past a blade and stake jumper. It was a cold day, and I hit him
on the back... right above his belt line... :eek:

I don't think I've seen any body bend back wards like he did. I stopped... the blade stopped... I jumped out, all set to bleed, but he took it ok... I think
I let him have my coat though.

A friend of mine hit the side spay... right when a car with the window down,
met him... about drowned the people, and scared my friend almost to death.
Thought there might be a lawsuit ...but I guess it turned out ok too.

Oh what fun we've had... :laugh
