    We scheduled a Delivery in the houston area on Friday Morning and a pickup on Tuesday in southern texas . We have been hitting our weekly gross target so that left us with memorial day weekend on the beach in Corpus Christi. :cool:


    To do it right we found a secure lot to park Our empty flatbed in for 20 bucks a day. It’s locked with cameras so I feel OK about it.

    This place is great with the best beach showers I have ever seen. Probably because they’re connected to the camping area as well.

    We’re having a blast and I love that Trucking has given us the freedom to pull over for three days and enjoy life!







    This probably isn’t the appropriate sub-form for this post, I thought I’d share. Feel free to point me to the appropriate sub.

    Bobtailing AND Livin’ good :D

    Even though we’ve been hitting our target gross we have a new trailer to pay for when it arrives so no hotels!

    But owning your own trailer is usually way better than rentals. Usually spend twice as much renting a trailer as you do buying one.

    We have a 53’ trailer on order that has a wooden floor and rear axle slide that we’re going to put a Conestoga kit on. Until then were using this rental
