    Yep, maybe you just got batter rather than the trailer getting shorter.

    There were many days I wished the trailers were shorter. Like that day in Philly making a right into a street angled the wrong way in front of 2 police officers. I'm very glad the corner was all covered in plowed snow and that I missed the light pole!

    Does Utility know Stevens builds their own trailer and puts their name on it?
    BTW, I can personally guarantee that these trailers are standard.
    I measured one the other night with another driver who said the same thing. We got a tape out to measure the distance from the kingpin to the center of the first trailer axle...40', in the 5th hole.
    OK...what's the next phoney baloney rumor floating out there?

    Easy now! I never made any claim that it was true, and I don't remember which instructor made the comment that led me to believe that they built their own trailers, goes to show I never read the label on a trailer. :biggrin_2556:

    Good to meet you yesterday!

    Got my trainer assignment this morning. Got lucky and he will pass within a mile of my house so I'm going home shortly and he will pick me up tomorrow afternoon.

    The more I think about it, I'm thinking that we repowered with you a few weeks ago. Maybe in WY

    Might have. I ran the 80 corridor for the most part, all spring and early summer.
    Down on the 10 now.
    Funny thing...as hot as it's been down here, it's hotter up there now!
     
    flightwatch Thanks this.
