Dually w/3-4 wedge, Medium duty w/ 4-5 car or semi w/7-10? Please help

Believe me, having 2 trailers vice trading one in has always been on my mind. The only thing I would change on this one is try to get the hitch a little shorter because the top rail is right at 6', but it definitely is diverse. Plus because it's 6' shorter than a 53' trailer, I'm able to get into tighter spaces and turns. There are days I thank God I don't have a 53'er LOL. I know I asked this on AE before, but who else makes a decent 6 car? Of the top of my head I'm thinking Kaufmann, Miller, Sun Country, who else?

 

Speaking of diversity, here's what I ran north this weekend, paid $3 a mile, and only weighed 8000lbs.



And here's what I came back with.

 

What is that ? Part of a tower crane ?

 

That's actually 4 separate 10' long "material handling pallets". The military would use them to load all kinds of crap in, and then put on container ships. The 2 small things on the front are a/c duct / hose container pallets. I used a tow truck with a boom on it to drag them out of their spots on the DRMO lot and then lift it high enough for me to back under and then I winched them on. They actually went up really easy, being steel on steel.

 

very nice truck brother

 

Thank you! She may not be the newest, smoothest riding, aerodynamic fuel saving rig out there but she works for what I do. But when I do replace her, I'm pretty sure I won't cry too much LOL.

 

same thing i say about my baby lol View attachment 47871

 

And i must say the great thing about having a large truck is the ability to carry more. Like tomorrow i have to "flat tow" a penske box truck from Atlanta GA to Savannah GA. easy $600. you cant do that with a dually lol

 

Must be you don't know how to really work a dually lol

 

not have a 14.5k pound truck with air brakes pushing a 8k pound dually. I rather travel knowing i can stop on a dime, or a quarter rather than a dollar haha
but lets admit a dually is only as good as its driver. Unless its a 6.9
