    Bought a grinder this Morning had to cut 3/4 nuts off. Worked like a charm.

    I go to the west coast a couple times of year. Very rarely for reasons already mentioned. I don't go northeast a whole lot as the rates dont justify to fuel cost, deadheading, tolls, and sitting around. I haul hazmat but they dont haul a ton of it here... Primarily it's just a couple select shippers.

    Generous amounts of antiseize for the new ones. It's like Frank's hot sauce, I put that #### on everything...

    I get what you are saying but personally I'm glad so many are afraid of 8 ft tarps. A good portion of the great paying loads I get are only because the 10 guys empty before me don't carry 8 footers. The only difference between using 4 footers on shingles or an 8 footer on a big crate is I gotta take 2 minutes to get my ladder out. Unrolling it ain't any harder.

    That forklift sure doesnt notice....work smarter, not harder. I only carry 8 footers. I have 4' drops, but they just take up room, I usually leave them at the house.
