    Hard to run, no. But depending on what you have on the trailer, it can make the job difficult.

    Haul: Grains, DDG, blood meal, bone meal, cotton seed, fish meal, calcium, urea, fertilizer, there's quite a long list here, and I'm sure that I've left quite a bit out.

    Lines, that depends on when you get there. Most places you run close early, elevators especially. So you get there at around 4:30pm, your not unloading till the next morning.

    If you have more questions, you are welcome to pop into the Hoppers thread in the O/O section. Great group in there that will help fill in the blanks.
