That would be Ecourse, MI.... been there quite a few times. Go park at location A on the map and check in at that blue building next to the lot. Not sure which way you ae coming from, but make sure you come in off Tecumseh Ave.

So glad we don't do coils.
-
Yeah the lease program is a thing of the past, all drivers are company except for those who actually made it through the program in 2008 and bought their trucks. I don't know how many drivers that is, I'm just going off what I was told.

Coils are easy. I'd rather do coils. Just wish we had one chain size bigger. And side kits
lol
SHC Thanks this. -
aint nuttn wrong with doing coils.i rather much do coils than just abt any thing else.I drove for a co that i was running with coils up 63,000 lbs and grossing just a hair under 100,OOO LBS.(Permit Loads)
-
What size chains do they give you to use?? I'm guessing 5/16"
Im sure you could go to the safety dept and ask for enough 3/8" to secure a coil. They would prob be happy to keep a driver safe.....or at least I hope they would lol -
The only time i like hauling coils is on a step or an RGN. Makes me feel safer even though i know i have plenty of securement on them.
MJ1657 Thanks this. -
I have'nt hauled one yet but i'm sure the day will come.
-
Nope. They'd say throw on another chain or two! Lol. 8 chains on a 30k coil is the Melton way. We use smaller chains, just more of emSHC Thanks this.
