Slick 60's

would there be any interest in a static display of a semi tractor and a set of doubles?
it would give non truck drivers a good perspective of the size and complexity of what they are all about.
let me know and i will bring it down for a day or two.
the kids might like it too.

Ezer, I think it is a good idea. If it makes one person think about sharing the road with one it will help and yes the kids will probably love it...........kid

too bad you cant show what its like when they pass you going the opposite direction while its snowing , they create their own blizzard that totally engulfs you

sorry ice, not in august. lol.

i was thinking about pulling a slick up in different spots next to the truck simulating different road conditions so people can see where the blind spots are and get an idea of where not to drive. knowing it and seeing it are two different things.

I wonder if this guy could bring his set up over!

Ezer, Maybe you could park it and have people who have never been around a big truck set it the seat and drive a Slick or small car up the passenger side of it so they can see how hard it is to see smaller vehicles on the right side. Might make some think about it a little more when they are on the road about how hard it is to be seen ........Kid

that's kind of what i was getting at darrell. i just don't explain things real good. lol.

Sorry Ezer. I reread your post and I did not realize I just repeated what you said. You have a great idea. It will be interesting to have it there if you can. Thanks................Kid
