    I’m sure they just keep rebuilding them.

    Yeah no kidding. The Roadway trailer I am pulling today was manufactured in 2007. It's literally falling apart and the rear light is hanging on by a thread.

    The entire light fixture housing on the bumper is completely rusted out and the doors are so worn out that it's a workman's comp claim in the making.

    And no, I am not exaggerating. I am literally pulling chunks of it off right now as I pretrip this piece of crap.

    Why do you keep pulling it, and how does it pass inspection?

    I am pulling it because they put my freight on it and then they assigned it to me on my handheld and workflow. As for inspections, I just went over the sticker on the nose. Said it was inspected just this March. I have it on good grounds to assume that they pencil-whipped the inspection form. The excessive rust is too severe to have occured this recent.

    no such restrictions in ohio. and it was the only moving lane due to side road closure.

    Some crooked stuff going on there.

    No way that trailer would ever pass around here, not even close to a pass.

    They've stepped it up when I see them. They used to be falling apart down the road.

    I see your chunk and raise you a chunk, with a bonus coffee for ya! Btw they replaced that section on the left but left the outside the turn signals crumbling still. Guess it was out of their welding skillset.
