    Home in Appleton until Monday. We just got two step deck conestogas. Look like nice trailers except they forgot to put a man door in the front of one of them. We also got three new 53' all aluminum flats and one of the new guys already smashed about 10' of rub rail against a post. I swear, some of these guys could wreck an anvil.

    I'm still too cool for school. ;)

    Had about a month off the road, the outfit I was pulling for didn't pay me a whole bunch of money they owed me, and then had some issues with my truck that had to get fixed which cost me my first load with the new company, but the good news is the new outfit seem to be a lot better people. '

    I hadn't felt much like posting while all that was going down.

    I am in Boise ID now, sitting at the J. Just loaded for ND

    Was just on quick draw website drooling over some of their new curtains. If I were to buy one and had the finances for it I would go with them.

    Some of those rigs pulling them with the tarp matched to their paint look pretty #### sharp.

    Our older trailers are Vango Merlots and they have held up very well.

    I'll have to look those up. I have been looking to see one that is truly weather proof. Our conestoga 2's still let water in the back and sometimes the front so I would be curious how others do when its raining or snowing

    I priced out a 53' western with a full roll top on it a few years back, speced it out with a triple axle setup that was Cali legal, with a lift on the middle and rear axle. It was way more money than I could afford at the time however.

    I know a couple of guys with the Chameleon brand, they speak highly of them, I think a lot of it has to do with who has been running them, I don't think they live as long as fleet trailers.

    I also wouldn't mind a setup with a sidekit. I love the way they look and here at system there are a few guys that have them and love them. You would be really restricted with what you could haul but I love them. They have a nice clean look
