    I have the chain pockets and think they are great. Use them all the time. But mine are approx. 3' apart. not sure if that is the normal but is a fontaine trailer.

    That's a better setup my experience was with my 1st trailer at Malone a 2004 Great Dane, the chains were so far apart I rarely used them, then I got a 2013 Great Dane, and it had J-hooks man i loved them..

    Got a question, has anyone ever had a BENSON trailer, I was wondering if it's a quality trailer on not

    Ya, I'll buy a new trailer when I buy a new truck, say 2030. But my trailer will be only 17 years old at that point, so maybe not even then.

    Looking for some info. I just took a load headed for Jupiter fl for Monday, I usually avoid Florida in General but sometimes the moon and stars align. Question, should I call a couple of the agents down there today and let them know I'll be empty Monday to see if they can find me something? Do they take my contact if I say let me know? If you guys can let me know, I thank you for any advice in advance.

    They will write your truck number down and usually call you directly. I find that most agents in bad areas, love to know who coming in, without a reload.

    With your truck number, they have all your contact infor and more.
     
    Truckin Juggalo, kjoseph and Bigdubber Thank this.

    Note to self:
    Do not get truck washed before delivering to the mines.

    i was home in Phoenix yesterday and thinking I would get a jump on my weekend I got my truck washed before leaving to deliver at the mines this morning. What a mistake LOL. To make it worse, I need to pickup on Monday back at the mines :(.

    At least I know now.
     
    Truckin Juggalo Thanks this.
