    Short story is I delivered Bee's this morning in Redlands .CA. Made a wrong turn trying to get out and got stuck in a tight spot that I can't get out off with my sleeper. I got my truck out, but I had to leave my flatbed back at this farm where it is stuck. I need a single day cab willing to hook onto my flatbed to turn out of this tight turn and drive it down about a mile to concrete where I will be waiting with my sleeper. I'm currently at the Pilot truck stop in North Palm Springs CA on I-10 Garnet/Indian Ave. My flatbed trailer is 45 miles from this truck stop or I'm willing to give location to someone serious about helping me. If you meet me here it will be about 1:30 minutes of work maybe less if you can meet me at location. I'm paying 300 dollars in cash. Please respond to this post if interested thank you so much

    Not being mean but you didn't seriously take one of the $3900 bee loads outta Florida did ya. And how'd ya get in loaded and not be able to get out empty?

    Call Ryder and see if you can rent a day cab.
    Might be cheaper than $300

    Seriously why can't you just back up to the point you made the wrong turn? Make the right turn and continue on? Save yourself $300

    Yes I know not too smart on taking those bee loads out of Florida. Basically the ground is too soft on the sides now from driving all over it to try and back up the same way my dad drove in. I drive team with my father and It was just a big #### up. We tried all kinds of way to back up or turn out of there, but all attempts were a failure. We got stuck on the edges a bunch of times and I don't want to risk my flatbed falling into a ditch. This is the whole reason I'm honestly willing to pay the 300 bucks.

    He's at a pilot, with day cab trucks and company names he can call and ask for help. But creates a TTR account to ask for help 45 miles from his trailer while it sits blocking a lane on the farm most likely.

    If this doesn't smell fishy, then my nose must really be clogged.

    Already tried renting a day cab from Penske and Ryder. It would take 2-3 days to process the paperwork and I'm trying to get my flatbed out hoping in a faster timeframe.

    I would try calling a tow service and see what they can do - they can reposition your trailer and they're fast.

    What if someone with a day cab with 250 inch wheelbase responds?
