I thought that I was the only one that had crap luck that just kept compounding. Perseverance brother. Have always liked the tri-axle heavy hauls. Have several friends that haul odd load's here in Ohio. The old upi in Mt Vernon had some old Brockways and REO's. Liked the rain cap reference. When I was in diesel school in '79-'81, my instructor was adamant about unnecessary restrictions. He couldn't stand to see trucks come in to the shop with rain cap hinges to the front where the air going down the road would cause pressure vs turning it 90 degrees. The electrical instructor was big into radios and knew how radio signals travelled. He just shook his head and laughed at these hands with their antennas cocked forward 45 degrees -- talking to the pavement. Friend of ours just returned from a Dakota pheasant hunt (and understand this was a year ago). Have an adopted son who lives over that way. A bad day in the woods, fields, or on the water beats a good day at work --- planning on spending a lot more time out this year. Have a 53 year old John Almand hardtop on lake Erie. Hard to beat yellow lake perch -- although fresh caught blue crab stuffed flounder at the family's place on the lower eastern shore has to be my favorite. Stay safe Blessings

For someone to own a Heavy Haul Business you sure don't be using enough securement on the Equipment you haul. I see 5 chains and binders and 4 of them are attached to the Equipment making them Direct Tie Downs which cuts your WWL in 1/2. But hey u own the Company and I've only been hauling Equipment for the last 18yrs.
