I feel more comfortable doing it this way.



The way they are strapped in, you can grab the machines and rock them and the whole truck moves with them. Much safer and they arent going anywhere. I was once pulled over by a Missouri State Police officer with a load and he checked it out and verified it was very safe.

I strap them all together and down to the 4 tie down spots. If I ever rearend anyone I know the machines will not have me pinned in my car.

I bought all these machines off a good friend of mine in Fort Smith, AR. He laughed and said Hell you dont have a load yet and sold me the Toilet! I think I paid $3.00 for it and sold it for $25.00

Nice packing Joey! I was looking hard for the "kitchen sink"! That would have made this load complete ! ! !

Nice load... looks like my truck on the way back from chicago this year. 2 VMC 27s, with stands, Glasco Slider, SS700 Cooler, and a Tokheim 39 Gas pump... Got a lot of looks on the way home.!

RC--it is actually pretty easy loading and unloading from the Magnum so long as you have two guys.  I pad the bumper with three stadium blankets and the latch is recessed so you don't have to worry about those nice creases we see on so many machines.  Then we tip the machine back so it is leaning on the bumper with the top of the machine extending into the car.  Once you lift the bottom to horizontal, the top of the machine is on the PVC roller and in she goes.  happydrinkers When the bottom of the machine clears the door, you just lift up, remove the PVC rollers and it is flat on its back.

I do watch my speed when hauling and stay clear of tailgating situations.  And unloading is just as easy.  Have not dropped one yet.  The Magnum is a company car and unfortunately, a truck is not an option.  Plus, if I ever get something real big, like say a wow Cavalier C9-871/494 wow
