    Still looks like the inside of a 1987 Volvo staion wagon. No joke, compare your gauge layout to one, you'll see they are almost identical. You'd think almost 25 years later they could update LOL

    I'm relaxing and rearranging the tool boxes on the truck today. Picking up a rail can on friday going to Lexington and coming back. Some of these loads pay pretty dang good. Hopefully the wind will work with me this time....

    If it's a 40 footer, you should throw a 2X4 under the front, also, otherwise both ends will not be touching, on that Revolution. We have had a couple people nailed for that. The regs state that all four corners, on a loaded can, must touch and some cops are wise to that.

    I've hauled a 40' alreay and since it is loaded I have to have it on the back of the trailer for a dock unload. When i did it last time, i only had to put one on the back since the arch at the front is higher than the rear. But I have 3 of them in the landing gear just in case. Thanks for the heads up :)
