    When i was a dock monkey we decked all day long, building ltl runs that went 5 to 10 states long. 1,500lbs per skid max on deck. Coure the drivers owned the load bars so they would tear into a forkie that overloaded them.

    Ours were maxed at 2K (in theory anyway) on 3-beam decks. Our newer trailers have 4-beam decks, which I've calculated can hold quite a bit more. AFAIK, decks are still limited to 2K.

    'Course, if it gets there intact, ain't no one gonna pitch a fit. Just sayin'.

    Happy Thanksgiving guys! Hope everyone is having a good one.

    I am hosting the meal for the first time and got the inlaws coming over. Not gonna lie, I am getting pretty blitzed before they show up...

    Not gonna list all the crap I am thankful for... but some of you guys and your friendship are one of them.

    Back to drinking myself into oblivion!

    LIONS SUCK!!!!!

    Oh, I'm plenty salty.
    I love me some bacon and eggs, with corned beef hash.
    And pickled eggs, and ham hocks and green beans.
    And good Asian cuisine.
