mercer transportation

unless they wanna pay decent CHI can keep those loads. i want $4 a mile to even haul there lol

 

Even at $4 I'd tell them they can shove those loads where to sun dont shine...

Gotta be one of the worst flatbed shippers in the country.

 

2 years later still waiting on my 10 hours of layover pay.

 

Gonna be running Strobe lights to the back of my Trailer. What you guys think 16 or 18 gauge?

 

How many amps do they require? The amps plus the distance determines what gauge wire you should use. Probably going to be 14, maybe 12. 16 gauge is tiny. Only good for low draw like a license plate light.

 

Between the 2 im looking at 1 amp.

 

For a 50-60 foot run at 5 amps you are looking at 10 guage wire. If 1 amp is accurate 12 guage should work, but I'd err on the side of safety with electrical.

If that was true all trailers would be 10 gauge from the factory, none are.

 

Pretty sure I made 2 unload appointments by accident lol.. agent made me one but when I called customer she didn't say I had one. Oh well i guess

 

Usually I just cut the plugs off an old extension cord and run it down by the factory wiring, that way if you want to add anything else you have extra wires and it’s coated,
