Why do some truckers dislike flatbed trucking

If your referring to that skinny old guy (I mean that in the nicest possible way ) then yes...I think I have seen him around before. There is also another guy here...not quite that old, but I bet he don't weigh 150 lbs soaking wet.

 

kids love the hummers - give em a blast on the horn if you get the chance.

 

What a perfect way to cap off my last with the van. 8am appt, didn't bump the dock till 9:30, at 1:15 felt them start to unlaod me and going on 3 I am still sitting here.

Had to reschedule my load for tomorrow morning but still plenty of time to get to Yuma.

If I didn't own this van and need it for some direct business I would set it on fire and leave it in the door.:smt011

 

I am so looking forward to carring a cool load.
And I am a fan of the hummer

 

I love me some hummers too, oh you mean the truck.

 

Yeah; he was thin. Mav had to pull him as a driver. He was having to get a DOT exam about every 3 months due to some health issues with age. They created him a job at the yard, Driver's liaison person or something. Don't know whatever happened to him. They interviewed him in mav's between the lines magazine one time. He was talking about how drivers communicated before CB's came out. Hand signals to tell you if the scales was open etc.

 

Just focus on how happy you'll be to be out from under that van, and pulling a skateboard instead...

 

New development for me, just happened yesterday...

I'm giving up the skateboard, and going back to the RGN...I'm still a flatbedder though , cuz it don't have sides, doors, or sliding tandems.

 

^ How do you tarp and strap a RGN load?

 

You don't...you just chain it down and roll on down the road...but like I said, it don't have sides, doors, or sliding tandems
