    Hook your chains evenly outside the coil racks because with 8-5 you only have majority of the force going a certain direction. In my opinion your a hazard like that

    FB says load board is down for maintenance. I wish they'd do it on the weekend in the middle of the night.

    image.jpeg Pete check out my two outside chains. They're at a 45 degree angle with downward force evenly to keep it from going either way to far

    I'm right there with you. I'm technology retarded. I know there is a way to use a phone as a hot spot to send the info, but I don't know how.

    At least you didn't do like the Fruitcake I saw the other day hauling those. He had 4 of them, one strap over the top of each one. WTH!! I had to do a double take. Some of the stuff I see out here is truly Amazing

    All you guys (and gals, if there are any others in this thread) that have AutoSocks, I know the price. I know the claims by the company. What are your feelings? (And yes, I've tried to go back thru to find what you said....but my brain is still melted from last week (tons of info) and driving home from Louisville.)

    So I'm just trying to weigh pro/con. Should I buy a used flat bed, or get one from Mercer. My wife says try the one from mercer due to if I don't like it I can turn the trailer back in. I've done containers, dry van, and doubles. Leased to UPS right now and I need a change. 1 more year and my truck will be paid for. I don't know what to do yall think, buy or lease the trailer? I live in Jacksonville fl, still have my twic, Jax port, and GPA badges, hazmat doubles and tanker. Decisions decisions
