ALEX, I just bought property in Tennessee, Indiana and Kansas now I have to build terminals. I'm considering COTTONWOOD KANSAS for the base of operations rather than that shit hole North Carolina.

[@devilshark8200]

Alex, I just want to express my appreciate your support for my abilities to improve my company. I got such a good deal on the Kansas property. I went so far as tossed in a piece of property with a small house on it in and personally use my truck and trailer to move the person to North Carolina absolutely free. I'm planning on doing a cooperate name change. and splitting up the company into sections east-west dispatched out of Cotton Wood Kansas to North Carolina via Tennessee. The north-south will be under Brian I need to buy some land in northern New England. Alex, I have to remember to be very cautious. I can't screw up or it'll be very bad for the company, but I want to say thank you for your kind words my friend.

[@billfryer5911]

True that you have a tighter radius with the tandems forward, but you might be surprised how with the tandems back, it makes it easier to guide the back of the trailer.

[@builtontherockhomestead9390]

Saw a video,maybe a month ago, truck carrying paper rolls (not strapped down) on a curvy road, paper moved around the trailer and it flipped over. You can never have to many straps.

[@russellbell7580]

You may already know this, on the left part of the steering wheel the middle button is a sensor if you swipe it untill you see truck information come up on the top left of your screen, find the picture of the truck with a psi sign on it. That is your drive weight sensor to till you how heavy you drive tires are, you just need to figure out what psi is your max weight by weighing a heavy load.

[@dieselreaper98]

I work for GP and only three times that I grossed about 1600, yes gross and then taxes and insurance drops it to about 1200.
