    Everyone local calls them triples, which makes sense I guess with 3 rails.
    A 3 railer around here, would be a heavy cocaine user, most just do 2 rails.

    So we are going to change the company name when we take over.

    What do you think of 'Next Generation Trucking ', ' Next Gen Trucking ', 'New Generation Trucking ', ' Two Sisters Trucking ', ' 22 to 34 Tire Trucking'.

    Do you like any of those, if so, which?

    I personally don't like 22 to 34 Tire Trucking, but my sister/partner does, so throwing it out there.
    I don't think anyone cares that we run 22 up to 34 tires, depending on the load.

    Would have been simpler to remove the caster wheels. Let it sit solid on the floor.
