Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

Sounds like between out-of-state trucks and greedy grain merchants, rates are still pityfull out there WH. Sorry to hear that,hope the rates pick up more than that for you folks out west.

Wheat looks really good around here,but its probably 3-4 weeks out still,at least. We have had so much moisture that its still purty green. Been steady here hauling,not super busy,but decent.


Hows your family,hope all is well. Feel really bad for the Oklahoma folks,man they have been hit hard. Anybody heard from Big John or highside lately,hope they are ok.

 

Hello
Does anyone have an idea of how to get the blackish grayish rings off of a white hopper bottom? I think this is caused by the salt and chloride from winter roads. I just purchased this trailer and started hauling grain and have noticed this over the tridums and at the front of the trailer where the tire spray would be. I was told by one person to use iron out. Anybody got any other ideas or is that the way to go.
Thanks Terrance

 

Never thought of that. I don't know why I didn't think of that I use to use that on my oil trailer to get crude off of it. I will have to try it. Thanks

 

Is anyone still following this thread? No new posts since June. Are there any areas that have started harvest?

 

Corn and beans around ally of MN is really suffering from heat and lack of moisture.

Guys are making corn silage now while there is still some moisture in the plant.
