    Sitting over in Alliance Ohio. If I knew so many of you frequented Newcomerstown I may have stopped earlier!

    Hoping to be South in Cuba Missouri tomorrow night at Dotties... never liked third shift loading...

    All of our step decks are Mac. I can't say I'm the biggest fan but I have absolutely nothing to compare them too... our flats are utility and Great Dane... I prefer utility.

    I don't like the Mac marker/side lights though... seems ridiculous to have a light directly behind the rub rail that isn't flush. Depending on how you run your straps it can be a pita.

    Oh, and the space between the spread is essentially useless for strapping. The winches don't slide far enough left or right towards the wheels so you're only left with one or two possible positions unless you pull out a portable... ask me how I know. Pulled a pipe load that sat just right. :confused:

    Ditties is some grub fit to eat fa shore.

    I'm sittin here in Bay City TX south of Houston, bounced down this way to get a load of rice that pays on the hundred. Headed back to the rice mill up the road from home. The cwt rate was awful appealing, I tried real hard to be right. In the end it just wasn't meant to be. So I'm 650 from the house, 10k over weight and got that I'm eating breakfast at my house in the morning feeling.
