    Hey Dan, haven't heard any more about the drop deck trailer you were thinking about. Is it still in the works or did that get put on hold?

      If it's anything like ordering a truck or any other trailer, it takes time to make a slot in the production. Took over a year for a reefer. 2 years for a w990

    I'm always amazed how straps and chains get loose and need to be retightened.

    • @darylthisdelle7702
      @darylthisdelle7702 Месяц назад +3

      Most loads have to settle then you redo the chains or straps

    • @GrizzlyOldFart
      @GrizzlyOldFart Месяц назад

      Indeed. Some things settle more than others, plus bouncing on the roads can have an effect. FMCSA regulations state you have to do a load check within the first 50 miles (or 1 hour, whichever is first) after leaving the shipper, this is usually where things need retightened/readjusted the most. And then every 150 miles (or 3 hours, whichever is first).

    I sub to truckers all over the world. In the UK & Eu they run all thier long trailers
    with 6 tires on 3 axles. I think the max trailers there are 40ft. Austrailia is mad
    dog nuts. I dont know what thier gross is, maybe they dont have one as most
    trucks pull 4 or 5 road train trailer setups. Each trailer will have 3 axles w 12
    tires on the back with a trailer dolly up front with 3 axles and 12 tires. Yeah, 24
    tires per trailer. As a lot of road trains service the out back on dirt roads they
    may not have gross weight limits. So strange.
