Prime Flatbed Divison Info

I'm not too worried about the weight, its making my appt time on Tues with the hours coming back to me nightly.

 

hate being over weight on anything the right weight gauge really comes in handy when getting loaded gives me a sense of what im working with and its pretty accurate..on my truck anyway

going to be close making it to ut by tues mont hopefully it wont take long to get that fixed since itll be sunday and you can make some progress

 

Crossing fingers, just do the best I can.

 

What??? The flatbed division sittin' around waitin' on a shipper!!! Naw, it can't be!!!

 

Well, what a rough day. Got the weight situated first thing. Drove for 3 hours, stopped and checked load. A OK. 10 min down the road I notice my tarp flapping, so I stop and it appears my rubber edge restraint fell and I now have a 6ft tear in my new steel tarp. So my other steel tarp is already being used on 5 other coils so leaves me with my smoke tarp. I sure as heck am not going to use a lumber tarp for 1 coil. So I managed to cover the bad part of the torn tarp and got more edge restraint in this time. And snugged the smoke tarp as tight as I could get it. I think I used about every hook and eyelit available. So now my load is nice and secured again. Ended up spending nearly 3 hours stopping throughout the day checking on load and adjusting when needed. Made it to Des Moines IA. Still made 601.6 miles today. Definitely gonna be short for my 90. Ill have 11 hours tomorrow, then 4.5 coming back tomorrow night. 1054 miles left to run.
