    I had a pvc with fittings load from hell. Laredo to Long Island and hated every mile. No matter what I did the shorter pipes kept trying to wiggle out of the pallets. I broke one just trying to push it back in. Next time I’ll have them sandwich the pallets with the 2ft sections in the middle of the two long pipe sections. By time I went through NYC I had 3 of the little pipes bungeed in my lumber tray. What a joke.

    Driving at night is great. Too dark to see the load, no need to worry about it

    Out of sight, out of mind. Of course that first coffee/pee break at sunup can be a little harrowing when you take a glance back at the trailer...............

    or all of a sudden you're now a "oversize/wide load"

    Good load today going from a mine in Montana to central Utah. There’s a 900 hp electric motor in the crate. Wasn’t sure how else to tie it down.

    This guy was parked in front of our terminal. What would possess somebody to load an excavator like this? :?
