    We use docks for the end load trailers and all the sideloaders are done inside.

    You can probably put that into a semi. Burn that 760 horse right up. The supercharger is intriguing though.

    We had a couple of gas engine semis in my time. Always something else. Particularly minding that RPM gauge and making sure she don't combust the fuel inside the exhaust system (Backfiring...) after being wound.

    It's not neccisarily because of the money that I prefer the longer runs... I like the solitude of the open road. Less time at shippers and receivers, less face time with the office folks, more time for me.

    Dont get me wrong... The way I'm currently paid miles do matter... But even if they didnt matter I would still prefer the longer runs.

    So today was the quintessential pride swallowing siege backing. It’s nice to know I’ve got over a year at this and today reminded me you can do something for a year and still suck. LOL

    This happened 6 months ago and someone on here said “go back to basics”. Any backs mañana will be that plus a couple extras. Full on set it up, get out and look and stop trying to cool guy it in.
