    Oh I see, my bad. I misunderstood and thought you were the carrier (operating under your authority). Thanks.

    The part that tricked me was when you said you owned the trailer too.

    Great thread...Awesome information and your write ups are good enough to make a book... Very detailed information... I have huge thumbs up to you HH guys.... Something I have always wanted to do but doubt I will ever do it... I got a good gig where I am at now and I am ok with just hauling the heavier weights.. This thread def is a great way for those asking "do I want to do HH" to really be able to think about it and see what some loads really take... I am sure you have easier ones and then the difficult ones.. What part of Canada do you hail from HH???

    I know this question isn't so much about the loads but I was just interested in finding this out (since I have never seen it being done).... I notice you talking about loading your jeep (and I am sure dolly as well as times).. Just wondering how exactly that is done... I have seen dolly's and jeeps loaded on RGN lots of times.. Just wondering how you would do that?? Never seen a RGN detached neck off the trailer and truck which I would think you would use you truck to back the jeep up onto the trailer... Hopefully I am getting all these names right so many jeep, dolly, stinger, etc..

    Usually loaded on with a crane, forklift, whatever can lift it on. Can't just drop the neck and hook up to the jeep and back it on. Necks need to be attached to a fifth wheel when detached off the trailer if that makes sense.

    Until the filter clogged? You mean DPF?

    I was talking DEF...the urea trucks. I'm in SE ON and one of my mechanics told me guys are having trouble with the urea trucks this year. Something to do with the urea heaters not working or something. I imagine if we are having trouble down here then maybe nobody runs urea up there?
