We end up picking up a secret load for a big company & on top of that we did a 34 hour reset in the road 🤙🏼

    I’d hire you in a second! Anybody who pulls your equipment, treats it like it’s theirs, takes pride in the job and is knowledgeable is money in the company or owners pocket.

    Always have a can of starter fluid and a BBQ lighter to put a tire back on the rim! Also, best plug kit for tire's is top of the line one from NAPA. Stop with the lights already.

    Chisel those mickey mouse markers off and buy a 3/4 inch drill and put recessed mini truck lites there and problem solved. You are doing fine. Just take your time and be patient until you get the hang of things and youll be fine because your a good worker. As soon as you can afford them, buy yourself some 27 foot 4 inch straps with the hook and chain. Youll appreciate having them a lot. So long, Bill

    Having them closed saves rubber. Having the axles spread out will have the rear axle dragging more than it should have to. But when hauling having them spread out is the way to go
