    That was in Indiana. He was from MN. I'm down at the Tennessean at the 22. Deliver Huntsville in the a.m. and then back to Lincoln to load for home.

    ND, SD, WY and MT as well if memory serves. Something about them observing the pre-bridge maximums (i.e. Canadian weights).

    Can't run them on the interstates without a permit, and be sure to check county restrictions, but if you've got the axles, pack it full.

    I use the MyPilot app. Put in all the info, can even pull a cash advance. Type it all in sitting in the warm truck, get the code, get out and punch the code into the pump and start pumping.

    Very cool!! I gave a go at a Union outfit around D.C. After running mostly new equipment at D&R let's just say that particular companies equipment left a LOT to be desired! I looked into a couple other places and wasn't really interested in running RT's and the like. And having to commute to a jobsite and only get 8 hours a day. We're talking about moving to N.C. I may look into a few companies down there but car hauling is treating me pretty darn good right now. If I remember right there was a race car at MIR that had AmQuip on the door. Was your son involved with that?

    I have a few friends that left D&R and Coastal Crane that are out of 37. They are mostly with daily rental companies. Your son with one outfit? Or does he go where he's needed?

    Happens fairly often if a guy bumps the curb at the back of a spot at the truck stop. I've seen guys hit so hard it rips them right off.
