Where is everyone #5

Easy 2 crane counter weights. North west Illinois to Cincinnati

 

Nothing to it.
Rule number 1 no horned cattle on top.

Rule 2 always keep torque on the driveline in a curve.

3 easy up easy down through the gears when you get er in the big hole let er eat.

4 the only way to move cattle fast is slowly. Keep calm they feed off you. A well lit trailer interior really helps they do not like shadows


Long days that turn into long nights when its busy if its local Amarillo work it's not bad at all. Honestly it's no different from any other vocation of trucking except your cargo is alive. So in the heat of the day I beat feet. If they are onthe trailer they are loosing weight and getting sick. If you have specific questions I be glad to answer them

 

#### at the time its 1230. I gotta hustle up to Gonzales and get heavy for Kansas

 

Rule 2 is to prevent tipping? Prevent breakage? Please enlighten me.

 

Trying not be a pain in anyone’s ###, just wanting to learn now rather than later. Why would horned cattle on top be a problem? I understand slowing for curves due to the top heaviness of a loaded trailer, but I’m glad Lysdexic asked because I was wondering the same thing about applying torque to the driveline in a curve. And thanks for helping a new b. I appreciate all the information you are willing to give.

 

I always thought rule #1 was dont hit anything. Maybe that was just dad's rule #1!

 

I gotta quit looking off these really tall over passes. Giving myself the heebie jeebies

 

Rollin E bound towards Caldwell,Tx to recover a pneumatic trailer.

 

Well stay away from the Mackinac in Michigan when windy and snowing.

 

Don’t look like much, but she’s heavy
