Random LTL Rants (all are welcomed)

I'll tell you what one time and one time only I pulled one of our 50ft with the wheels slid all the way to the back, never again talk about a pain cornering I'm not to proud I don't care if the shop has to knock the pins lose and help me slide the wheels forward I didn't care for it having those wheels all the way to the back. I know there moved to the back for loading purposes, but it's to much bridge for the city.

 

I had almost forgot that I had that nightmare delivery once, to a house on Lake Michigan on a one lane road. Had to break down both skids and walk individual pieces to the back of the trailer.

Fortunately I only had to get them to the back. The guys accepting the delivery had to walk them down to the house from the road

 

r&l hauls garbage freight like that all the time, that's their bread and butter.liftgate,palllet jack and handtrucks.daily tools........

 

Seems to me that those daily tools are just the normal tools of the trade for local P&D.

 

One of these years I am going to plan a trip out west not to like California I have no interest in that, but to Montana and Utah and just wander along the way. Hopefully I can meet Big Don and Road Runner one day. Utah has quite the scenery and I know where to find Road Runner I'll be waiting for him in that tent next to that converter dolly at that truck stop easypeasy.

 

That'd be great, Mike!

 

I know you have met a couple people on here. Bob Dobolina and I met up last time I was in Columbus, it was fun we had some hot dogs at this famous hot dog place in down town Columbus.
