    I am leaning towards TMC. I like the thought of being the few, the proud all that stuff. Flatbeds do or dont have the narror docking problems as much as van? Looking for pros and cons either way. thanks, george

    I have to go,but I know there are many posts on this site concerning both Roehl and TMC,maybe PM them and ask how it is going for them....I personally,am pulling a flat and I have also pulled dry box,in my case,I prefer flatbed,although this time of the year,not so much LOL Good luck to you and my humble advice to you is,-do not rush into anything without doing your homework,and definitely,do not listen to a recruiter,they get paid to tell you things you WANNA hear...:biggrin_2556:

    remember u sometimes back flatbeds 53 ft back it can be tough putting a 104 in trailer in a 105 in hole and back it st 53 ft.....Ive found i back as often as I dont.....and tarping in snow rain and ice is often not worth the pay.....and ur drop and hooks u are still the one strapping and tarping....not trying to discourage u just being honest
