    I see them driving thru south Texas out of Corpus all the time. There massive, and so is the length of dual trailer. Very impressive.. The transmission housings are the size of a school bus. Money must be awesome.

    Well I gambled waiting for a great rate out of Newburgh NY yesterday and ended up laid over for what I thought was the weekend. This morning a load hits the board and immediately the rates keeps going up. When it got to a great rate, I called only to be told flatbed only. So then the load gets posted at a fantastic rate, I call back and ask why flat only? She calls her customer and they say they'll make it work. Bam!!! It could have been loaded on a step all along.

    Glad to hear it worked out great for you.
    Surprised somebody did'nt snatch it earlier. They must of been watching Tom / Jerry instead of the load board.

    The rate was jumping every two minutes or so. That is the beauty of load alert emails. I don't have to watch the board. It was a real PITA to tarp though. That back tall piece is only 18" or so wide, and the other stuff is non crated machinery that you really shouldn't walk on. I stepped gingerly. Had to pad the crap out of the load too. SHC would have gave up, lol.

    Every time I see those, it makes me want to go buy or trade for an RGN. Shame here at Mercer we don't have a lot of RGN loads.
