Can you get more on the trailer by stacking them, if so that's what makes the extra work worth it unless it's just a short haul.

Tanks brother. You and yours have a Merry Christmas.Banker Thanks this. -
Sometime speed and efficiency will make you more money. If a guy can come in get loaded and be gone in 45mins with 4 units and deliver just as quick but it takes me two plus hours to do the same, it would take the Sun Country long to make up the gap and his truck isn't getting worked as hard as mine and his body isn't getting nearly as beaten up either. Work smart not hard. -
I definitely see what your saying, but getting 50% more pay per mile, and not racking up 50% more miles on the truck is worth it. 50% coming from stacking 6 on your trailer vs only 4 on the sun country. Just my 2 cents. I get more for the cars I have to winch on without too much of a problem because alot of people won't to put on the extra effort.

The first few weeks I slept like a baby. As with anything else the body adopted. I lost about 50 pounds in the first couple of months but as with the work load the body got use to it too. Leveled out since than. May get more motavited after winter. -

Would have to look at what the frame did but yes improper chaining can bend a frame. This happens when you just hook a frame and than torque the hell out of it.
I haven't heard anything about one being totaled. Might have been Unimark.BigBob410 Thanks this.
