Haha, ill have to get a picture of my bumper dragging when i have a stupidly loaded mess hooked up to the rig :lol:
Would that qualify? :D
On a serious note, i think its sweet that we are introducing new badges. Badges are ALWAYS fun to receive :daddy:
Who's going to be crowned first :scratch:
-
whoever gets it first :P
but i think bat will be the first to get the layed out one and i'll possibly get the layin low one lol. all i need now are tires and two weekends at least to get the frame notched and front lowered. lowering the rear will take a half hour with a 20min beer break lol
-
so umm where do we apply for these badges??
-
Depends on the badge.
Pictures, write-ups, dyno sheets, recommendations / nominations from other members, etc....
-
New award added to the collection.
This the Heavy Hauler badge.
(http://www.dodgeownerforums.com/smf/awards/59fdce032bbe658de94e2eaa61dca12b_Heavy%20Hauler.GIF)
In order to receive this one, you must do 2 things.
1 - Provide a weight ticket showing the GCW of your truck, trailer and load in excess of 25,000 lbs.
2 - Provide a picture of your vehicle, trailer and load that was weighed. The picture DOES NOT need to be while it's on the scales.
While we do understand that the limits of vehicles do get pushed, please adhere to, and do not exceed, the maximum weight ratings for your vehicle and operate it in a safe manner.
:up:

I think Woli has more than proved that he is worthy of the Heavy Hauler award
(http://www.photochopz.com/gallery/data/500/WayneCampbell_GarthElgar.jpg)
-
As soon as Woli shows us a scale (augh will have to convert from nanoounces to pounds) we will set him up.

:scratch:
-
Scale sheet...I meant scale sheet...just missed a word.
And Rich was just saying we understand some places wont let you out of the rig while your being weighted. So we don't expect you to show us a picture of your rig, with the load on, sitting on the scales.
Just show us the scale sheet showing weight and a picture of your rig pulling said load. Then one of the admins will add it for you.
-
Gotcha :up:
-
Sounds like a kick ass award to me... There are defiantly some heavy haulers in the CTD world, its cool that they are now being recognized!
-
Where's Your Ticket Nick ? You Haul a Big Load (of BS) Concret :popc:
-
Haha, nice way to squeeze the BS in there :nuts:
I was just thinking if i would even come close to this considering i do mostly small jobs as of right now with my truck and trailer. I think i have only had 14k on my ball at the most. I don't know what my truck weights but i know its no where near 11k!
Although its temping to just load that F'er up and head to the scales... I dont think it would be smart move to risk the truck, trailer, or lives for a DOF badge ;D
-
What about you Ed?
All's that you would have to do is load the 5'er up with a few of these!
You could lure masses of them in with cheeseburgers and diet coke ;D

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

well well well.....
this seem to be a task for beasty,since her fat ass tipple the scale at 10'k by herself and my trailer is set to 3000lbs i only need about 12K more weight....
Mayfair do u talk about the excavator i moved or the pics loaded whit logs while being stuck in the mud? or the one stuck in the snow?
thats a shame last week i loaded 5k in the flatbed and 9k on the trailer,whit the tools in the truck
i hitted 29k for sure...
today i shipped a ''small'' piece.... 48' but only 2000lbs but on a 24' trailer,it was about 2 block away so i did it anyway hehehe
i dont think i will hit the scales just for the fun of it to show it weight over 25k....
anyway its a nice idea :)
-
Come on Woli, scale up brotha!!!
(http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff136/khburk01/extra-big-fat-cartoon1.jpg)
;D
-
Mayfair do u talk about the excavator i moved or the pics loaded whit logs while being stuck in the mud? or the one stuck in the snow?
:lol: ALL of em !! It seems like your truck is ALWAYS loaded to the max !! :lol:
i dont think i will hit the scales just for the fun of it to show it weight over 25k....
anyway its a nice idea :)
I can't say that I blame you. I can imagine that if you DID hit the scales with some of that weight that you've been pulling they may not let you leave once they see just how heavy you are.

(this award is not dakota specific)
so since this isn't dakota specific... i was thinkin a newer member of the forum does have a pretty low car lol. Southern Belle's car sits freakin low. altho i'm unsure on if its half teh ride height, but from the start till now.... its gotten a lot lower. i think it should be looked into for her gettin this!
-
I'll defer this decision to batman13, as he's our resident asphalt punisher......
;D
-
From what she put in her intro thread, I think a 4/5 drop on a Neon would be more then 50%. That would qualify her for the Layin Low badge. :up:
-
well, 4/5 on a neon is pretty low,
id like to see before/after pics....
shes subject to the same rules, and so i need proof
you know the drill

Well, I dont see it in his profile. Just in this message.
-
So....I saw the question asked before, but not a real good answer. The Awards that you just have to submit a picture or two for....Do I PM someone or just post it up somewhere. I can get one of the mileage ones, the Heavy Hauler will have to wait until the next time I get a good load. Don't think I've been over about 18k yet.
-Aaron
-
Just start a thread w/ it ... or PM it to the admins ... what ever you want to do.
For the mileage make sure you put something in the pic to clearly id the ODO as yours (we've had DL's, registrations, cool silly notes, toy's, personal items) ... be creative and have fun with it.

:2cool:, thank you very much, Methos!
-
I think I qualify for the shade tree mechanic (see my build thread) and maybe the Tech certified since I have a 2 yaers degree in Diesel Technology and have been working in the industry for 4 years but that is up to the staff. I also need my high mileage and 400HP badge removed since that truck is no longer.
-
Shade tree mechanic and the Tech certified must be decided by the Tech certified members only. I will recommend you, then they take it from there. As for the removal of the high mileage badge and the HP badge, I can remove them for you.
-
Thank you!

I see we have badges for lowered truck and I also saw talk about maybe having badges for lifted trucks??? Did that even leave the test bench?
-
it did ... it was talked about ... it was tossed around ... it was shot down.
Decision was based on:
-to easy to toss a lift w/o doing any actual work
-way to many variables to influence decision
-what is "High Enough"
-would it be based on suspension ... body .. tire ... roof
-
Ahhhhh gotcha.
