    True. Still not very considerate having wet windows like that. Not safe either. Lol

    Well all went to hell paying and try paying per mile. Used to and still does with some mills at a Cents per pound. So lets say 1.00 per hundred weight on a hundred miles. So that 400.00 on 40k in a 100 miles. But normally over 40k went as 80k. Thats 800.00 on a 100 miles. Put 2 over 41k that 1600 on 100 miles. Well was. Its alot of risk, liability. So everyone is trying to do it for 2.00 per mile and hauling 49k or bigger coils. Coils keep getting bigger and rates keep getting cheaper.

    Don't recall any such questions when I got mine renewed. Maybe we don't have enough switch hitters?

    Not necessarily wrong, depending on what you do with it.
