    I met a Korean Air 747 at the North Cargo building ATL and picked up 26 small skids and carried them 25 miles for 6 grand.

    That was my original post.Then I broke it down and attempted to explain the charges and was then called a liar.So I don't need your unbiased opinion as it means squat to me so save your concerns.My post which may seem to some as negativity is based on my experiences where I see a majority of truckers being taken advantage of.If you haven't seen such abuse consider yourself lucky.
    I have hauled many multi million dollar loads because I am good at what I do.I get the job done.
    I was put on probation for much less than calling a user a "liar."
    And your lack of action in this case speaks volumes.

    you don't know the difference between a skate-board and a skateboardman, and it was still a 500 dollar load, not matter how you spin it. I have hauled f-35 tail sections worth probably 4.99 cents each. does that count 1 speed, and again what did ya do with the truck and trailer you bought, plant flowers around it??

    and I do wish I was going to be in the vero beach area to hoola at you but I will be in Maryland then Wilmington,nc then des moines then Wichita.

    that's still a 500 dollar load with a 5,500 dollar ins. surcharge. it wasn't a 6 grand load, I think we know why you didn't make it that long in your own truck

    I've hauled them. It was one half of a horizontal stabilizer in a crate. Made of carbon fiber and really light. They only let each one of us carry one. I could have taken maybe 4 of them but they didn't want to take the risk in case of a crash. Don't know the value but I'm sure it was sky high. No extra insurance needed.

    I figured your response would go one of two ways.

    I offered a potential olive branch and you say you dont care. If true then thats your right. But certainly not a friendly response or gesture.

    Good luck to you.

    Just wanted to let everyone know that I still like turtles.

    This thread got so hostile. I thought it was going to be an inspirational thread. Guess not unfortunately

    Screw u all. I went back and read the thread and I was being honest and sincere until skateboys post #25. I even explained how he misinterpreted my post. So piss on everyone who participated in your internet pile on. There are very few long time truckers who even participate in any type internet activity.You cheerleaders couldn't handle the truth. So ban me bar me or kma I could gas. You losers get what you deserve.
