LsAgent, mind your own business
Allow Me, you have every right to say what you want but if its negative Id prefer you to not say it or at least PM me or e-mail me. If you want to talk about what happened we can
Bucksplitter I can see what you mean, but that doesnt really bother me so I should be ok, the rain part wouldnt be so much fun though
Now can we all do what this thread is suppose to be about, curiousness about driving and pulling low-boys. We dont need n e more arguments or if there is one let it be between the two people, and we dont need the english language majors coming in to grade my grammer and sentences. I havent been to school in years and dont need that now -
Huh, interesting treatment of forum staff, and those trying to help you out.
Perhaps this attitude is why the OP is looking for a job? -

ive driven lowboys in the Army. Its essentially the same but the biggie is loading unloading and secureing your load. espc since its almost always big equipment.Chaining crap down can be a PITA

ach1130 woke up on the wrong side of the bed and is a little pi$%y! With easily hurt feelings like that you need to stay out of trucking...

what, was the "a" key stuck? -
I cannot emphasize this enough: Steel on steel (track equipment) is very tricky, especially when wet. You have very little traction. Trailer needs to be level (side-to-side) You need to approach the trailer straight on, and once you're on the ramps, do not try to turn. If you have to, just back off, straighten up, and start up (or down) again. Most lowboys are either detachable neck or drop-neck design. Don't be tempted to take the shortcut and load over the tail. Take the time to unhook and detach or drop. I've seen seasoned veterans lay over equipment because they were lazy or in a hurry.
