We don’t pay pilots to deadhead to us. Technically they did no work so we can’t charge the customer for them. We had well over $1k in overweight...
Well in today’s episode of “take a ####in and keep on truckin” I left Wichita on Sunday morning with the Bertha tarp heading for the Detroit,...
Yep we don’t have appointments typically in LA but it is always a trade off. Get there 2 hours before they open to avoid traffic, or get there two...
Sounds pretty annoying to me.
Just trying to fit in with the rest of the window lickers.
Yeah that’s not the best picture but yes, the turntables are mounted on the walking beam. There’s a trunnion at the back edge of the trailer. Kind...
Trail king west coast set up with the main trailer having steerable axles on turntables. Fancy like Applebees. [ATTACH]
I’ve never hauled a single crane and I know to chain the house to prevent side to side movement. I’ll even do that on some of the “bigger”...
Sounds possible with a 7 or 8 hour split break.
Yep, I guess they didn’t have a flip neck like I thought.

Ding ding ding! There are mounts for removable flaps so maybe he took them off and left them with his trailer. I sometimes do that and forget to...
Spotted in Wichita. Wylie gets the fancy “heavy haul” trucks. Stainless fenders, apu, factory ramps. I guess it wasn’t in the budget for our glass...
Seems like a hell of a deal, I’ll take 5 please! Man I know the truck stops tend to rip drivers off but $135 for one chain!? [ATTACH] I was...
Well our new trucks have North Dakota plates. So that’s…interesting?
If you have the miles to run, running your clock out in 6 days and resetting on the seventh is more productive then recaps. When running recaps...
At Maverick the plant specific dedicated glass drivers didn’t do back hauls. It was all out loaded and back empty. We would take a loaded trailer...
I don’t have any experience redecking a trailer, but I do have lots of experience pulling trailers that should have been redecked. And I think...
There’s a better chance I end up in a four axle truck under tfi then there was under Daseke. At least I think.
Yep, many different ways to accomplish the same thing. There are even several different versions here in the states.
