    Was watching one of the youtubers (C1 Specialized) and notice a unit that looks like your old truck and trailer. Thought it was yours for a split second until I seen you sold your trailer and got a new trailer.

    I have a history with Trail King - so they were my first choice. I didn’t look at anything other than the Temisko. XL makes a similar set up but XL Doesn’t have the greatest rep. Aspen makes wind trailers but not specifically what I wanted.

    I would use outriggers - mostly cause loading and unloading would scared the crap out of me....and I don’t anything less than 1000 miles usually

    that is a bulldog (part of Daseke) from SC - very similar except they have black on top of their hoods.
    So close I get confused sometimes as well....

    It can get really messy if your key works in their truck. o_O

    Although probably not as messy as if theirs fits yours.

    That's also tipped me off when watching that the black on the top of the hood.

    I wish you well with that new setup. I see them all the time going across the 401 in Ontario empty . Actually just seen one this past week, company out of Quebec.

    thank you for the well wishes, I am nervous going in. Always have to keep learning and growing - it just can be scary taking the risks.

    bet those trailers are all orange......

    Wont be any different than any other sector of trucking. There will be more competition moving into wind.
