    Busy day today. Decaled up a new 777, did a PM on a 988 and started reassembling front hubs for a 140.

    That mill was 12' wide and tall, so it had to go on a double drop. That's the bad thing about a curtain side or conestoga, alot of what I do wont work on one. Otherwise I'd be all over it.

    Do all tanks go through vessel inspections?

    Yes, but pressurized vessels go through the most invasive (200 to 265psi) Black light test, wall thickness and brittle test, product pump, hose, valve and fitting leakage test certification. I think its usually around 10k depending on how the test goes.

    The seal just to pull the pump down and inspect it is around $500. If they find a dent or crack in the vessel, you're done.

    I agree with you on width... we have a few.. double drops with curtains though. Not sure on the maxed height.

    I don’t think I’d outright own a curtain as an o/o, unless I already had multiple trailers... you pigeon hole yourself freight wise. But if you’re doing multi stop loads day in and out... they save hours.

    Free college, free healthcare, free spit in your face while they #### you in the wallet: all the #### that people want that never had to earn it.


    “You can’t be responsible for yourself, you need the government to take care of everything for you” kind of mentality.
