    Looks like it, but that's what makes flat bedding so much fun. Everyday is and should be something different. By the way how big a drop tarp did you use?

    Hey there's an echo in here.

    8' drops, Driver.

    2-24'x26' is all I carried until a month ago when I bought a 16'x16' flat tarp.

    Loaded up pallets of electrodes for a steel mill in AZ. Unfortunately my 4' drops came up about a foot short of being able to cover the entire load so I had to break out the 24x27. And of course they are a little TOO big. Going to have to get an extra row of D's added. what sucks worse is I have to roll them back up in 100*+ temps.... Oh well.

    I was in a hurry when I ordered this one, and I was not paying for it. But now I can see that I need to add 2 more rows length wise for sure. As you can see, the last row of D are even with the deck on this load, so it makes it very had to pull it and keep tight. 1 more row about 12" up would have been VERY nice.

    And a set of lightweight 6' would have come in very handy also, which I'm looking to order soon.
