    Well after pulling local heavy haul, I decided to make a change, thought about hauling propane(thought key word chickened out is the reality) So back to OS/OD gotta love a multi axle rig, I am so looking forward to getting back on the road..
    Got hired with an outfit close to home, they are known for HH work and hard to get on with it must have been in the cards for me..
    Most hands think dealing with permits, escorts, and crazy routing is a pain ... I must be a nutcase then cause I love it.. doing what some wish they could, doing what others won't and making things happen.. Nothing like it for me.. Hauled Vans, reefers, various flats but RGN's make me smile all day long..

    I might not rooster cruise anymore but I dang sure pound the ground harder than most ... with a bigger hammer....

    Ironpony,
    That is a great big OH NO... I started off flat bedding with a company when I left the Farm....
    Since I left JBS My life has been great no stress..... The local gig well there was issues with the "fleet manager" he came from Wasted Management dealing with trash trucks, I was running a 80ton Lowboy 4 axle plus the 3 axle booster and he could not read a permit to save his backside.. He was asking me to break laws I told him no... He said I was no longer needed.. Well I aint much on unemployment so I went and found a new job...
     
    SHC, The Challenger and ironpony Thank this.

    My friend does OS/OD pulling an RGN, and he always calls me with these crazy stories as he dots across the country with those loads. Must be fun!

    Good Luck, hope it works out for you! Yea I like the challenge of the over demensional stuff. I like doing something different then just pulling commodities all the time.
