Nothing heavy, but, it does have a shot wheel bearing, no breakaway chains, and no plate. Makes up for it :spit:

Is there something wrong with the truck you're hauling, Adam?

I blew the the engine my work truck 4 months ago. I was getting a new one, but our truck budget got cut. So we fixed it hopping we could get it to last until next year. I've had it back 3 weeks. Pic on the red wrecker was last week the blue one was monday. After getting it out of the shop today I've blown the hot side pipe off twice. And the AC compressor is going out...

Do you have the endorsement on your license to pull that triple axle i know when i had the 40ft raptor i got ticketed for not having the endorsement

No, not that I'm aware of. Me and my father in law switch off towing it. he's got an 02 powerstroke but I believe 30ft is under the length for endorsement.

Adam how long are most of you trips? Do you do mostly local stuff or cross country

normally i run m-f. home for 34-48 hours over the weekend.. im more regional than local/cross country.. more often then not im east of the mississippi and north of TN and NC
this trip i pickup in
columbus oh-chambersburg pa,
altoona pa with a stop in philly and a stop in manhattan ny,
pickup in yonkers to brookville pa,
pickup new castle pa to canal fulton/canton oh..

if product is moving and i dont put myself in a dead freight area, i have a load going through the weekend which are usually 750-1200 mile runs going through ohio..

avg load miles is ~350-400miles.. if money is good i'll run 1000mile one way from columbus ohio.. jacksonville FL is 900 miles from my house.. most of the places i pickup/deliver to have less then 100 employees and dont use a truck load amount of material.. pending when i get loaded, i can have it delivered by COB next day 1000miles away... vs waiting 3-4 days for a semi to get loaded..
