I see the advantage to lowboys at the same time I see companies/brokers rather wanting using deckovers .
Thoughts ?
Lowboy or deckover trailers for hotshoting?

Deckover? You mean a drop deck?
-
No i mean deckover 36ft gooseneck deckover or 36ft lowboy gooseneck..
Its hooked up to a f350 dually not a class 8 truck n trailer..
Its for hotshoting . everyone seems to be running deckover , but i like the lowboy for clearence and weight..
Thoughts from people running either one ? -
Just depends on what you’ll be hauling. We’ve been running the 3 axle Lowboy style trailers for the last 16 years. They work great for us.

I would run just general freight!! Do u think its limited on certain style of frieght ? Are u using 3 7k axles or 8k axles. What gvwr or how much do u load on the trailer..
I see they offer the 102 and 83 width ones.. Im thinking 102 × 40ft would be ideal..
I dont see many companies who make them. Load trail or iron bull ?
Thsnks for letting me pick ur brains.. -
