Looks good to me. If you place your bungees as high up as you can get them, it will keep the tarp from blowing out. BTW, you can pick up cases...
I tried that. I build tanks and figures but couldn't get enough lighting in the sleeper to do it. I even bought a large tackle box for tools and...
The DOT inspectors don't either. During every level 1 inspection I've had, the DOT agent used a hammer to check the tires.
Where did you find this? Carrier's Atlas says 20,000# and I've never had a problem in CA with more than 19,500#
You can find all that info in the front of your Motor Carrier's Atlas. Much of it depends on what states you are operating in. Generally it's...
We have cat's eyes on all our duals. I thump with my winch bar anyways since I have it out to check my straps.
Same here. The cruise will try to put your boost into triple digits trying to maintain your cruise speed. Less boost=better mileage.
Likewise, 20 yrs ago Cabbage, Donner, Eisenhower, Vail, Grapevine, and all the little 8,9, and 10%er's on the smaller highways would be even more...
I prefer night driving. Just be prepared for the switch back to days, especially if you go flatbed, since our deliveries are almost always in the...
A box of rubber gloves will keep you somewhat clean while still retaining tactile feel in your fingers.
:biggrin_25526: I love what a big deal they make out of Monteagle. 20,000 lbs you should be able to jake it down 11th or 12th. 50,000lbs and...
I see them on I-80 often. Tinted windows, no company name, no DOT number, only Federal plates. Usually there are 4-5 security F-450's within a...
Can't go wrong if we both use it. :) I especially like it when I have a 6-7 drop run; that's alot of bills to be faxing. I can also use it to...
All his winches are on the drivers side, which in this case was a good thing.
Looks like someone found out doing a 90 degree back with a top heavy load doesn't work very well.
2013 T700, 3/4 tanks with a 53' flatbed: 30,300.
Two other drivers, and myself, tried to get a guy out of his burning car up on top of Canyon Creek Pass. He had rear ended a curtain van that was...
I disagree. I've never seen a big rig use the shoulder as a passing lane, but I've seen 4-wheelers do it. They even passed other cars
I remember a 3 million miler that was making .38, which was max at the time. He retired at 75 from flatbedding.
I just keep the same speed or speed up. 9 times out of 10 they hit the brakes, even if they're 50' in front of you. If you both slow down, the...
