300 wheelbase truck pro's and con's?

coming from you Dino that funny $h'!

 

Be cautious of dragging your fuel tanks on speed bumps and elevation changes (driveways).
There was one shipper where I had to back down into the building, you could barely slide your hand between the tank and the pavement.

 

Thing is about front over hang. It has a swing radius just like tail swing.

 

I certainly hope they're getting an above average rate on loads like that since they're saving the Shipper a huge amount on avoiding the permit costs and rates that go along with them. I regularly see brokers trying to get those moved for cheap. They're delusional or trucks hauling them are idiots.

 

Judging by the trucks that company runs and how close they are to the beam plant im White City I’d say they probably get a decent direct rate. When I drove for my old boss I know anytime we got down around Medford he always tried to get beams out of there down to Utah.

 

Pros and Cons? You’re about to find out!! Lol. I had to say it. You’ll get used to it in no time. Nice Truck, Pros far outweigh Cons IMO. Like others said, have to watch those tanks, on steep driveways, even some RR Tracks. Wouldn’t mind some more info, Year, Engine, Trans. Now all you need is a nice aluminum spread axle flat, or a 53’ Reefer with Independant sliding axles

 

Pros: you'll get some eyes on you.

Cons. You’ll get some eyes on you.

 

Achtung: Warning: Danger: Chicken lights and chrome @Dino soar trigger post above. Lol!

 

Unless it’s just some guy with a 40’ trailer pretending he’s got a 53’. Hard to tell though.
