    The older Delevans lasted many years in-fact Jack Cooper is still running many of the old Allied rigs. I guess we will see how the new Delevans hold up. I probably won’t go to the trouble of building another rig, but I do have some ideas. I wouldn’t bother unless I could get one about 40,000. However at that weight I could consistently add a unit, then it would possibly make sense. I am a number cruncher and after I think about it and crunch some numbers and repeat this process a hundred or so times, I may come up with a decision.

    Not sure how true it is but i heard hansen took alot of their new delavans out of service due to the decks breaking. I've seen one broken in canton. Im pretty sure the number crunchers at allied/cooper realized its cheaper to fix a truck than buy a new one

    This is coming from a flatbedder and a log hauler, that looks like way too much work.

    That looks good as it's designed on this day but there is still alot of empty space, I'm betting Cottrell will come up with something for one more unit.
    But there is always the weight bugaboo.
