    That’s fairly new. The one I hauled was the first one in FL. It was a big deal, all kinds of people from United Rental was there to see it when I delivered it

    Yea I was reading that, reading what Bob said about feeling run down makes me wonder, anymore I feel lethargic at the end of the day. I was always good for 18-20 hours on 6 hours sleep, only good for 12 hours now lol.

    It actually has a lot to do with truckin'. That little test strips they dip in your whiz at the DOT physical is checking that. I know a few people that came out with a 90 day card including me once.

    @stwik that looks like a good load!! The crane company I was at had 1 snap binder...it was hanging in the container collecting dust. We used nothing but ratchets on equipment and counter weights.

    Most equipment guys I’ve ever known use ratchets. When I pulled a scraper trailer I had one snap binder for the front because there wasn’t enough room for a ratchet.

    I hate ratchet binders. Seems like just as I get them all freed up and working right they get covered in road grime and seize up again.

    Oh I understand, I have little faith in medical field. Except my Doc. He is oldschool. Ive been seeing him about 30 years, so no young quack. He know alot about effects of trucking. Keeps a good eye. Took care of dad along time. He is no pill pusher and likes to think out of box. Thankfully I have no known family history on either side. But Im gonna ask. Thanks guys
