    No, OLD OLD trailers bought by a pallet company. On the site of a Kraft company in Lakeville Mn.

    FYI, you choice guys that are wiling to run up that way, both loads I pulled out of that place were 25 K. Yesterday was nose to tail floor to ceiling with chips ahoy snack cups!!! Quickish live load and both have been drops on the back side.

    Because drivers turn 15xxxx series trailers into 95xxxx series trailer within a few months. I think Schneider is shocked the 95xxxx trailers made it for that long

    Oddly enough, the 9 series trailers seem to be the straightest pulling trailers in the fleet. Seems like it is always the newer ones that track.

    All the ones I've had are on life support. I can't wait to get rid of this rust box I've been stuck with for a few days.

    Too true. Pains me to see brand new trailers sitting at a trailer repair or oc that looks the hulk busted out of the side.

    This 9 series I picked up today, I'll be lucky to get out from under it loaded with the noises the landing gear was making.

    How about that cash they're stealing from us gets put toward air ride trailers. At least my back won't be so sore after getting..... content edited for the kiddies' sakes.

    Many of their customers don't want air ride trailers.

    Their customers don't want air ride? I load and pick up at these customers and always see other carriers with air ride being loaded!

    It's not the customers it's SNI. Sni is about controlling costs, therefore they don't have air ride strictly because of the added maintenance or repair. Look how the spring ride trailers are treated. Imagine how bad the trailers would be if they were air ride. We'd always be waiting on road service.....lol

    I was at a shipper one time. They made all the air ride trailers slide their tandems.
