cannot forget the occasional hammock mounted under the rub rails while brats and steaks are cooking on the propane stove placed on the deck in the cool spring autumn night. A cooler of beer next to you idling in the breeze on a 34. It's a good exercise platform as well. Pull ups, elevated situps/push-ups amongst others.
also like someone else said, that smug superiority when your tarps are perfect and the other guys looks like warmed over turd in the sun.ZephyrSoCal and Ooops Thank this. -

I till tell you with out a single doubt the best carriers to do flat bed with.
First off....do not go to a carrier whose mission it is to rope you into a (Fleece Purchase )Lease Purchase. The top 2 carriers I would suggest is Melton Truck Lines and Maverick Transportation. They both have a really good hands on and on site flatbed training program bar none. You might have to go with a trainer for a few weeks...you might want to call and check on that. Flat bedding can be a lot of work. You are no longer closing the doors and driving down the road. You will be outside working in every type of weather. You will have to throw tarps. Are you ready for that? Think about it really hard before you make a decision
Also...Stay away from TMC!!
Dont go to Western Express under any circumstance.
Good LuckZephyrSoCal and LilRedRidingHood Thank this. -
