    Ha Pete was just thinking about your airbags on the cab going out so often and was wondering if you’re rubber stops on the frame rail had rotted off letting your airbags collapse more than designed for

    Dropped the truck off at the dealer he says about 1-2 weeks to get the part but they said they will replace the 2 studs and do an Aliment and add it into the Estimate for total of work. Getting that done then gonna get back to work while we wait on parts.

    I just passed a flatbed Southbound on 77 in Ohio he was hauling large-diameter pipe and had a total of four straps. Normally I wouldn't talk about other people's securement except for the fact that he had one of the pipes from the center of the load up against this headache rack and all the other ones were about 4 feet back . I was heading Northbound and hollered a couple times he never answered .

    The pipe stretched almost the entire length of his 48 foot flat. This wasn't a mercer truck I didn't catch the company name but it look like he had a hardbreaking situation and the headache rack did its job. But the pipe was still against his head ache rack running down 77.
