[Cautionary Tale]

This is immediately after my first 90 mph desert run courtesy of what I can only describe as the most oversized load (huge commercial excavator), running me off the highway. Tires and suspension handled it like a champ. I'm not sure which was more exhilarating, the desert run or my first accidental jump (ty Houston for crazy train track ramps).

Sounds like operator error on your part. If the excavator was as big as you say it was, we know it had three or four escort cars. Two of which you would’ve had to have Passed. There’s no way the excavator was moving at 90. So apparently you chose to ignore all the flags banners and flashing lights and not slow down. Pulled over sized loads for 7 years. You’re not the first guy to end up in the ditch when that rear escort car radios to the truck “ asshat coming up the outside hot“. If you were headed the opposite direction, then you chose to ignore the single escort lead car way out in front that you passed.

I do so love anecdotal sleuthing.

I'm not from Texas, so can't speak to their laws but the 3 oversized loads I ran into had one thing in common which would be illegal in my state, not a single escort or follow vehicle. I was rocking hands free and guy pulled to right to let me pass but hands free didn't give it the beans. I'd imagine he was gonna hit something and moved in on me to avoid a certain collision, at which point I slammed the pedal and went from 80 to over 90 in a blink and still had to hit the trail. I don't begrudge the driver a bit, and after that event I flew passed the other oversized loads to avoid similar situations.

While I appreciate your knowledge and background, please that understand I'm old and have my own. In AZ at least 1 lead and 1 follow is required and more depending on size. I've never had any kind of trouble before. If I ran into the driver after, I'd have bought him a beer, because he likely had no good options.

@D&Sadventure thank you for your service. 7 years in TN is no joke.

In any event, the truck is a colt and it loves to be free. So many smiles.
