    Within a month I was pulling plenty of dry boxes. These were 14 feet wide.

    I was scared to death and those first few loads were nowhere near secure.

    I'm not saying it's hard, but I wouldn't say throw a couple chain and it's gravy either

    I was talking more about the difference in a flat and a step. I can't say much about a dozer, the biggest one that I hauled was a D8. :D

    I started running log bunk from the mountains of Maine to Quebec in the 80's. It was a quad axle tri-bunk and the only advice I got was binder down tight and don't look in the mirror, so I was curious about why don't look in the mirror! I got the crap scared out of me when I did, watching the back bunk sway opposite of the forward bunk by 3feet freaked me out!!

    IMO flat vs step: ones not harder or easier than the other, just different.
