    Idk that being sold at truck shows is a good barometer for quality or legality lol lots of chintzy stuff gets hocked there.

    They do seem cool tho. If I had any reason to need those I'd buy some

    This'll be there one and only gimme. Receiver unloaded with forklift.

    It seems it's waste time with extra securement or extra unloading time. It'll be their sweat next time!

    FYI: Gerdeau Midlothian

    On another note. Ptl 19703 just dumped a bottle of urine out his window and directly in front of my drivers side step.

    And people wonder why every one looks down on truck drivers.

    I carry my own blocking now so I'll only refuse if they refuse to let me on my trailer to set the blocking.

    Strange that it was gerdeau. They are the worst of the worst safety nazis. I bet if you got the safety managers ear, showed him the regulations, and a couple shiskabobed trucks things might change.

    I've hauled that bundled rebar more times than I can count. I have chunks of 2x6 , 4x4 and 2x8.
    Fill in the gaps making a straight line across the trailer. Throw chains and straps. Roll on down the road.

    Next....
