    I have only been driving truck for 7 months or so. Sooooo see anything you'd do different, I'm always open to advice or suggestions.

    I run all over BC (in the mountains a lot), Canada with the odd trip out to Alberta and the company I work for sometimes runs as far as Sask, and I have heard of atleast 1 load that went as far as Ontario.

    My very first load, bunch of lumber...common load for us we do a lot of local mill transfer's.
    You're doing good for 7th months. Lot of serious loads there. What kind of step is that. Is it 53'? Do any axles raise?
    Keep posting the great pics.

I'm guessing I will get to pull one after I get a few trips under my belt. To be honest, I think hauling machinery is much easier than regular flat loads, but that may be becuase I've done it before??

    We use to have 3 or 4 curtain sides and 5 or 6 conastogas. That business has gone to the wayside in favor of emphasizing more profitable lanes. Anyways, I'll never forget how much of a PITA it was to fish chains through that rubber on the underside of the rub rail that kept water/snow/ice ect out of the trailer.

    If you have to tarp everything they're a God send, but if I can get under a piece of machinery I'll take that all day long. Throw a couple chains, double check a S/N, flag/sign if wide and you're on the road.
