MY EXPERIENCE AS A Mercer FLATBED DRIVER

Lol
I needed a good laugh. Good stuff.

My load fell thru. Heading to waco. Flightline called that one.

 

What would be a good starter kit with mercer? I dont have any equipment and will need a headach rack. If i bought all equipment from Mercer how much will i be looking at including labor for headache rack.

 

think its around 3800 if memory is correct

 

If you have cash, you can save some money by asking other Mercer drivers if they want to sell any of their equipment. Sounds crazy but alot of them (including me) have extra equipment and would sell alot cheaper because used.
I plan on being down tomorrow, maybe wednesday.
We buy new equipment little at a time in trying to keep nice looking gear.
Still would need to buy some gear from them and Mercer also has used headache racks available usually where other drivers have upgraded theirs.They keep these their in the garage area.

 

Mercer require headache rack?

 

Yes or a head board on the trailer

 

Ahh not a big deal seen one today that was awesome.. didnt hold anything but a bunch of lights, looked to be SS

 

Flightline
I thought I had seen your truck Friday in KS. Didn't remember your colors but came out of the TS and here was a Pete red/white with the motorhome sleeper and I went over thinking it was you. Obviously not, another driver with Mercer logo but out of Michigan
I'm still kicking around mercer and when I get closer to making a decision I'll be calling you with a few questions

BTW. I was going to PM you but your box is full
