    Does the plastic sag at all in between the crossmembers on the floor? Like if you load salt and went underneath would it be drooping at all?

    Hey there! Happy New Year! Sorry you're freezing your butt off. Get some insulated long johns! Hope Blade is staying warm too. It's been pretty darn cold here for Alabama, supposed to be 17 tonight. Being busy is a good thing. It's been hectic here but not so busy, which hasn't really hurt my feelings but I'd rather be busy for sure. If you're over 5'2.5" then you need to stretch your legs. he new trailer is doing great. more people are interested in it than I though would be. Be safe out there and stay in touch. Happy Trails!

    No it doesn't sag, I've had 30 tons on it no problems at all.

    Pretty impressive. Do they give a rating or an idea on what you should haul? I'm assuming no shred? But light gravel/sand would be ok?
     
    NightWind Thanks this.

    I can haul anything I want to in it. the weight rating for the trailer is 68,000 LBS which is pretty good I think. I normally haul different types of sand, river rock, limestone, granite, lime, gypsum, bushlings, pig iron, scrap, grain etc. I can even haul some types of rip rap is I decide to although the trailer isn't designed for that it can handle it without any issues as long as you have a decent loader operator.
     
    special-k and blade Thank this.

    Well I’m glad to hear you are getting some longer runs but if you’re going in a coffin I doubt you will do much leg stretching lol

    Good to hear from you and know you're getting some longer loads. Just be careful and stay warm. New trailer is still doing a great job no problems.
