    These are things that need to be sent to people like P&S or Western Express or TMC and you can say......."these are the industries BEST?"

    I agree with the Cluck. On that the pipe it is longer than 10 foot, 2 straps in the first 10 foot then 1 additional strap ever ten foot. I haul a lot of pipe and it doesn't take much to slide a bundle of it. That appears to be fairly light weight pipe so he may be ok with that load. But take a load of 12 inch thick walled pipe in 50 foot sections stacked 13 foot weighing around 46,000 and he wouldn't make it out of the parking lot.

    When he pulled in I didnt think he had enough. I had to study it for a couple minutes then thought "I gotta take a picture of this"

    I would have spread out the belly straps and put 2 more straps on the front and back

    I'd be running the bunk heater too, at 40 degrees. :D

    Weird is right.... but then again, it is a Maverick driver.

    Not sure to be honest with you, I have unlimited data so Verizon tells me. But I know it runs 6 hours a day and they have never said anything about it.
