I attended the Columbia-Wrightsville (PA) "Bridge Bust" this morning. This arts and crafts festival spans the entire length of the Route 462 bridge over the Susquehanna River between Lancaster and York Counties. We parked on the Wrightsville side because a friend told me the fire company would be using their utility to block the bridge. I have been trying to get photos of this rig for a long time. Today, I managed to get a picture of it (albeit a crappy one). It's kept at the Wrightsville Borough garage and only used in extreme weather situations (flooding/snow). There are not many that can drive it and trying to find someone to dig it out is next to impossible.

[/quote]Are the rear wheels on this truck offset? It looks like the front rear is closer to the edge of the truck and the rear is set closer to the frame? Maybe it's just the angle, can't tell and was just curious.

Now that you mention it, I'm not sure by looking at the photo. I'll have to ask some of my contacts there. It might be the angle of the picture and the fact they had it backed up on the sidewalk.

It's backed up onto the curb and the suspension is compressed, making it look like its offset.
