    You might look into southern pride transport, I see a lot a huge sleepers on their fleet. They run a mix of flats and curtain sides pulling jet engines.

    Talk about putting the horse before the cart! A truck that big really narrows it down.

    I have NEVER seen a Southern Pride (the aircraft one) pulling a flat much less a curtain side.

    Look into "Reliable". All of them I have noticed are orange though. They used to be part of Allied, I think. I see a lot of them with the big sleepers. They haul cars in enclosed trailers if I am not mistaken.
