I think more than a few of us have done something like that. I know I was almost tempted to go out the gate and see how far I could get before being stopped. Then common sense returned.
If you were driving for Maislin you may have not gotten pulled over after what I read the other day.I think more than a few of us have done something like that. I know I was almost tempted to go out the gate and see how far I could get before being stopped. Then common sense returned.
Another fantasy temptation was to run Thruway doubles off the Thruway at Suffern and run down Rt 17 into Jersey and see how far I could get before making the evening news!
Having made that trip from the compound, such as it was, down 17, I'm guessing you would probably, maybe make it out of Mahwah. But that's it. Can't remember the name of the next town, but those cops always used to sit on that little downhill by that little motel.I think more than a few of us have done something like that.

Probably drove through a UPS Hub by mistake.Wow a shower rack ,must of been a large barn or specially built for Blade.
I worked with a guy who used to run through a UPS hub wash rack once a week for months with his Ltl rig until they called the police on him. Said they were going to press trespassing charges if continued.
cool !Worked 15 years until they cleaned out the system
Worked there 17 years
Drove it once. It would slice through the air with it's aerodynamic trailer behind it, just like it was calm outside.It was built by Preston trucking as a fuel mileage challenge from Caterpillar. Preston actually won it. It was a one off vehicle that actually ran the road. It
came into the Maspeth NY terminal. Norman Bennett was the driver.
No, July 26 1999 was the last day.
Tri, these were back in our hey-days, glad the Teamsters frowned on them and said NO!You guys are too soft. Here's what real men drive...
Maybe they were no Y2K complaint?
It was my barn, West Middlesex. Preston bought it from McClean. They built it.Wow a shower rack ,must of been a large barn or specially built for Blade.
