    I like that “roll-a-step” platform. More and more places are using stuff like that, they don’t want people on the trailer when there is hoisting going on. Some are just small platforms that hook into your stake pockets. Some outfits will even have setups like this in their yard so you can use it for securing your load. I’ve been on jobsites where they’ll set up temporary scaffolding and expect you to back along side of it...
    Safety first!
    That’s one thing I don’t miss being (mostly) retired is going to work at 2am and securing a load alone in the dark...

    Thanks but, these fenders are junk.
    After 2 months passenger side cracked, and now its about 2 inches bigger than this picture. Hogebuilt won't warranty cracks, bunch of BS. 20201226_113056.jpg

    Ya I agree, on the flip side of the coin though some places don't keep them up in top notch condition, they won't roll so there will be a gap in between the trailer and platform which is more dangerous than not having one IMO, if your foot slips through... Not good.

    Just a lucky load of Air Conditioners that takes me to a high school about 5 miles from home. Light load. Had to really move straps around random sheet metal screws they like to use everywhere. Found a quiet little truck stop in Arkansas... pretty sure more meth than diesel is sold here lolol. Soon as my clock resets I’m gonna boogie back to TeJas!

    No, picked these up in Arkansas lennox . The Truckstop is off I30/Caney road north of Caddo valley. I don’t even think there is a town off the exit. Just a place on truckers path. Really not a bad place and quiet so far. It is dark as hell in parking lot at night though.

    It’s called a pallet. They use it to move material in a steel mill.
