    Well sitting here in Virginia beach, Va.
    We got our ld. unlded and have called on several lds. I keep hearing chickens in the back ground.. Cheap cheap
    Saw a Keen trk. today with miltary freight on.
    I asked him when did you guys start that?
    He said new to him. Used non Cat ld.

    Saw a new wanna be heavy hauler learn the hard way about not having ramps and a dump valve on his trk.
    His king pin caught the rear cross member of his trk. and then wanted us guys to help him fix cross memeber and how do you lower the air ride. I pulld his leveling valve and said now your air is dumped. Back under your neck to get it off.
    He said no I need the air up to get neck off. I tried to polietly tell him what to do. He wanted to argue. I went to my trk. and left.
    Yuck em....

    There was a guy at Albert Lea over the weekend with a mechanical detach. No ramps Stationary 5th wheel. He must be the guy hauling all the gravy

    No might be one of the reasons the rates are in the crapper.
    I bid on a ld. from Md. to Nv. Tall needed pole car for about 4 states. Plus tarp fees and fuel. plus line haul 17k oh and weight permits
    Somebody took it, for what I do not know but it's gone.

    Yes Cluck, this guy had no matching drive tires at all on his trk. Plus when I was leaving his left fuel tank was all smashed in and had straps holding it in place.

    I may not have the newest or shinest trk, but I make sure my trk. is legal and I can do the job I say I can do.

    Those people have to run broker freight because no respectable shipper will call them back
