Well, did the west coast turn around then took my Freight shaker to Connecticut haul'in gold , picked up some Slinkies, took them to PA, then picked up 48,000 pounds of steel and hauled ass to Georgia. Might get a brand new truck later this week, the old freight shaker is getting up there in miles. Yep, the last American Cowboys are really truckers and the real truckers pull skateboards. Flatbedders are a brotherhood and we consider ourselves a cut above the reefer and van boys. We always haul heavy and long, we secure our own loads and deliver on time almost every time. Truck'in is a tough business and we work 14 hours a day almost everyday even though we are only allowed to drive 11 hours. last load I hauled I was at 79960 pounds, 80000 is max gross. But I gotta tell ya some of these folks in four wheelers have no clue what a 40 ton truck can do to their car when you cut a trucker off or make some dumb move. We cannot stop like a car can and my truck will crush a car like a bowling ball hitting a marshmellow. I consider myself a professional driver, never had an accident, never had a ticket, never had a DOT violation, but I have had some very close calls. Last thing I would ever want is to hurt someone or myself because of some idiot doin something stupid. Gotta head up to Virginia tomorrow then back to the left coast again. Yall keep the shiny sides out of the ditches until next time, my home town is coming in sight, if you think I am happy your right, 30 days on the road and I am gonna make home tonight.
