Anyone Quitting??

Try one of these on slick roads. Give you a whole new appreciation for accordions

I pulled a 4 axle beam trailer last spring. Roads were fine but the Flying J was a different story. Gets your attention when the trailer goes straight and the truck goes sideways at 10-15 mph even. It happens very very fast. I love the guys behind me complaining when I am heavy, they may be able to recover but if I am running at or over 100k there is a big difference in recoverability in a slide. I'm going slower to give me more time to recover not to prevent a slide. Once you break loose running that heavy there is very little you can do if anything.

 

If you say I'm expanding or growing around here you'll have people PMing you wanting a job!

 

Same with my dad in Northeast PA, running sand for cabot and they're down to 1 rig. Still going balls to the wall for now. Nothing compared to what it was from 2010-11. My dad did 100k and then some at 18.36hr cementing for superior well services before Nabors took over. If the boom ever comes back im going on a cement crew

Seems like your paid by load? That's harsh for company driver in this game . Find a company that pays hourly plus load bonus.

I'll pm you

 

I'll have to remember that next time I need a driver.

 

First two hours free...after that $45 per hour loading or unloading!
