    I have a question for any of the flatbed drivers for Roehl. What region do you transport to the most? Now I am aware you guys go everywhere, just wondered if there is a certain area that Roehl runs to alot.

    Dorset, What do the circles stand for? If I live in Mississippi, would my circle be 4?

    The circles I'm going to take a stab at it. Sometimes you could be picking up and delivering in certain regions til you go home then next time out run a different region. Region I mean by circles. For me as in van I've run a lot of Midwest in the beginning. Then had a stretch in the southeast and this time bouncing around in the northeast. And then sometimes doing a complete circle from the south where I live, go up the east coast, hit a city in the northeast. Then go to the Midwest, the upper Midwest then sometimes hit St. Louis area then back home to fl or sometimes straight back to fl from like Wisconsin. So you could do pick up and drops and hang in a region and sometimes go to several regions. Depends on freight volume. Hope it makes sense that's what I got from it and from my experience in van.

    And you can go national where you have your own truck in flatbed I know for sure. Slip seating is for hometime fleets.

    If you run national you don't slip seat, if you run 7/3-7/4, 7/7, or 14/7 you slip seat trucks

    Or he could be referring to how I drive. In circles, all day long. If I come to one of those roundabouts I'm like Chevy Chase in European Vacation, I just keep going, round and round and round. :)
