    Don't look out the back window! Lol I worked with a guy who drove a day can around and when he got in a sleeper truck his first complaint was how was he supposed to back up without a window to look out of. I told him he had 2, a left and a right one lol

    I was pulling my hay trailer and setting up to back into a space the other day. A guy hollers on the CB, "Look out! A flatbedders gonna back up!"
    So I hollered out, "We all get paid by the mile. Why would I want to go backwards!!??"

    There's and interesting question I respect your opinion a great deal, do you look out the back window when you back? My dad told me no to get in the habit it's a crutch you can't always count on. I sometimes think I do it to much.
     
    MJ1657 Thanks this.

    Just those three units, going to the only stop that #####es every single time I show up with units side loaded bc they always manage to break the pallets.

    I'll admit I do that when I have to blindside. I guess that makes it not a blindside back anymore. :)
