Degradation of the Car Hauling Business

You weren’t invited?? Nobody need your invitation and you dont own this industry. I notice a lot of jealousy from those who been doing it for awhile to new guys. As if you was born to do it. Nobody cares if your feelings gets hurt. Dont like current situation? Quit and go do something else. Again- new guys dont need your permission. Now i understand people acting unprofessionally but ive heard this “new people don’t belong in car hauling business” from older car haulers so many times.. guess what? New people are coming you like it or not.

 

No worries most new guys don't last three months

 

As an old hand, I have no problem with new blood. I have a major problem with the new blood who not only has new clue how to haul cars, but have zero desire to learn the right way.

They act like their God's gift to carhaul because "I'm fast as ####, boi!" Yeah, they're not legally strapped, the windows are down on every unit, the load is well over 15' and the back bottom unit is in the next zipcode. Oh, and inspection involves more than walking up and making the baytag is the right VIN.

Customers having to deal with those ######## is making life tougher for everyone. And few things are more aggravating than jumping thru hoops that are only there because of lazy fools who barely qualify as "guys who haul cars" and wouldn't know a real carhauler if one walked up and properly kicked them in the ###.

 

Tru Dat !!

 

Yikes!!! Is over-hang accidents the most common in car hauling?

 

In truckstops, I'm sure it is. I'm sure you've seen these high-speed mofos run within a foot of the radiators of a row of parked trucks? Well, they don't look up.

I'm very particular about where i park loaded, but I've been hit twice while empty with the rack maybe a foot out from the grille. Both idjits got me with driver's side tail swing.

 

It's so bad that I've gotten to where i leave my dash cam on at night. Even if i think I'm in a protected spot.
