    No a Maroon Marauder would have left his gear in good order. You're thinking of Burgundy B##tards

    Well my trailer just freakin LOVES to have its darn ABS light on.... I have had it "fixed" 3 times in two weeks now. Last Friday was the most recent. Went over a bump on I-70 around Dallas Pike T/A in Wheeling, WV and sure enough... darn thing comes back on again. I am so frustrated with it. This is my third trailer that I have had at Maverick in about a year and a half. All three have had this problem, but this one is the worst. And its not even one of the F-series trailers. OK, done griping- for now.....

    A real winner of a day for me. Had a delivery appointment at 13:00 in Orrville, OH. Left the house at 08:30 local. Got to customer at 12:20. Spent about 2.5 hours getting unloaded. Sent empty call in and wait another 1.5 hours. Get a work assignment to pick up 58 miles away tomorrow anytime. Headed that way, get a beep. "Load won't be ready til 09:30 tomorrow."
    258 miles today.....

    Heres a little dot secret. Your trailer by law has to have antilock brakes. They dont by law have to work. You keep trying to fix that abs light and you'll be in the shop ALOT.

    I got one of those today. The load I had was repowered since my truck was still in the shop. I left the paperwork with the trailer. He left me 1 Lumber Tarp and a 2" ratchet handle. That's it. I had about 100 bungies, 5 4" straps, 2 2" straps and my second lumber tarp on that load. I am now short all of that equipment. I have 1 new box of 50 bungies, and 7 4" straps. Going t obe really interesting if I get a lumber load tomorrow and I am supposed to tarp it with both lumber tarps and 50 bungies. Not sure how that's going to work out.
