No thats just really lazy flatbedders...LOL

Wait a minute thats not fair! You wouldn't be a flatbedder if you had one of those...

 

Ever had the load shift up against the side of that? Then try to open it? Not a lot of fun.

I really LIKE vans. Dry vans even better than refers.

 

Yeah but anyone can swing doors and bump a dock....

 

No, but I have had one close call. 8" Coils that should have been skidded. It was close, but all worked out fine, after paying a shop with a crane $60 to straighten it all out. I wouldn't trade it for the world. And I never hauled that crap again!

$100,000???
That's just To The Truck......

 

I like that set up but you can't haul oversize loads like tractor tires or pipe......
How do haul one of these in a Conestoga?

 

That would probably fit from the looks of it. 103" usable on the inside. I have hauled a few humv's and other military stuff in there. My mainstay was automotive, robotics, control panels and assembly line parts and pieces. Oh, and chasing trade shows, they loved my wagon and paid accordingly. Normally around $5 a mile, and not short haul either. Sad times though, as those days are long gone...

This load paid $5 grand, weighed next to nothing, from Milwaukee to Sharonville OH by Cincy.
