    Not wanting to create thread drift to something that should not be in the Hall of Shame, I did find 3 pictures to illustrate trucks that you may not see in the USA, and posted them over in the Truck Pix thread.

    That’ll happen with oak too, but to a far lesser degree.

    Nobody should be using anything made of pine for dunnage. I don’t even like pallets made of pine.

    If I remember right, that tire had a strange tread, it's like it was solid in the middle with little slits, but deep tread line on either side of the middle as you can see....either way, that was like, 11 years ago. :)
    Checking my records, I see that I picked a load up to get back to the terminal and then switched trailers to a flatbed to pick up a load of I beams in Midlothian,(the other load I mentioned trouble with pine), so if it did have a problem, it did get taken care of, or not. This employer I did quit later over equipment issues, trailers in particular.
