Does DC have the budget to repair the pot holes from the tank treads?

It's a parade. They're fun. They are all wastes of money. Some folks enjoy them. Other could care less. Parks allocated 2.5 million towards it I think. Yes, it's a waste but again who cares. Maybe it will keep him off twitter for an hour.

For the record, I love parades!

some people have flipped their heads into ether.. over the tanks.


only 4 80 ton tanks are being used in the parade as compared to 2 or 3 battalion of tanks in previous parades before 1970 and those tanks were under 50 tons.


there prolly a very good reason why more 80 ton tanks aren't being used in the parade, the D.C. streets would get damaged, believe they're rated to handle 50 tons worth of traffic weight.

Weight rating relate primarily to the level of load carring ability and not necessarily related to damage caused by road pads on tracked vehicles.

there's a reason why trucks at a certain weight shouldn't be on the road rated at certain level of load.


btw the current M1A2C tank is at 73 short tons (66 tons).


original M1 - 60 short tons (54 tons)


btw, I hate military's numbering system.
