Curtain Flat bed

I have pulled curtain van for several years. It works well for the area I live in & the freight that is available here. I think you need to find your lanes/customers/brokers etc. first and then spec your equipment accordingly.

 

I was told this by the main man at quick draw when I talked to him at a truck show. I have never ran with mine open so I can't really tell you. If you haul oversize very much a conestoga type system might not be right for you.

 

I have never seen a system that will cover a oversize load! I do know 1 person that has a conestoga on a RGN but what she hauls is not oversize.

 

I have see a big dozer in a curtain.
Yup,oversize.
But like with everything in life,$$$$ rules,meaning it ain't for free.
On a flatbed ,it is relatively easy to make.
Oh,and is only with a curtain you can do that.

 

The only con. I see is having to roll that thing front and back ,at least twice, on every single load.

 

LOL....takes me about 30 seconds to open and 30 seconds to close. You don't even break a sweat!
