Hopper, Dump O/O's & Drivers

That's right,i was thinking you had Firestones for some reason. I'm due up a set right now.

 

Could have been, if you saw a gray Pete 386 pulling the trailer with a blue and red stripe. I was running Plevna on Monday & Tuesday, then went to KC (River Rail), Chanute to Amarillo, Corn, OK to Port-33, and finally back home. There's a black KW T800 that has Arrow Trucking on the doors, that's leased to us (Knight Trucking), he pulls an identical trailer.

I'm not sure my CB gets out that far. Even with a RFX-75.

 

I don't know anything about them. Was wondering myself.

Thanks

 

I have been lurking around as I was considering leasing onto a company with a hopper. However, You all paint a pretty bleak picture for the hoppers. What is a good average price you all use when you decide to take a load or not? I was looking at going with a broker? however, that seems to be a bleak picture as well. Are there any good brokers left out there?

Thanks!

 

Thanks wheathauler. I sure appreciate it. I hope to get started and start contributing to this page. From ALLLLL the pages I have read, you all are awesome at sharing information and answering questions.

 

Welcome to the hopper/dump thread,COhauler. You can just send your ''contributions'' to wheathauler,i think he still takes personal checks,but prefers cash. Glad to have you. Like Wheathauler has already said,it's not always bad,just been a tad rough the last couple of harvests,but i still enjoy pulling a hopper,you just have to be more ''selective'' of where you run nowadays.

 

Thanks dairyman. That is funny because wheathauler said send the monopoly money to you.
