It’s not like we don’t have trucks like that. If it’s a national priority we can build anything.

You're dreaming.

Weight of 24' x 35' x 2' Precast Concrete ~245,000lbs.

Max weight on Texas Roads(including truck) - 80,000 lbs.

Not dreaming, not accepting failure.
There is a way, if there is the will.
Improvise, adapt, overcome.

If Israel can do it, so can we.

They could make those large prefab concrete barrier walls right there on the border. No need for driving them too far.

Where on earth did you come up with such a bizarre number?

A monolithic concrete slab that's 24 feet by 35 feet by two feet!

You clearly know jack about heavy construction or pre-cast concrete.

Step back from the board and do some quick image searches on precast concrete tee and double tee decks used all across the country...probably even in your area.

Americans have this stuff down pat.

Good thing we have an expert who is going to build the wall.

If Trump can’t build The Wall, he’s not going to be worth spit at anything else either.

Even I, who doesn’t have the experience of Trump can see many simple, quick, ways to build the wall.

All the handwringing going on right here on FR is amazing.

See my tagline, which I’ve had for over a year.
