    i forgot just once to lift my axles turning a corner and came to a dead stop, only my pride was hurt but i survived ;] i too like the wiggling truck it puts a smile on my face, thanks again for the share

      😂 I’ve had that happen when I ran multi axle in MI. Air over air and the airline came off. But instead of stopping it kept me going straight. 160k lbs.

    One word of caution with the spread. Make sure you don’t forget to put air to both axles when hit the road. If you cross a state scale with one of those axles up you will get a real expensive overload ticket. Ask me how I know! Lol

    Great to see you guys back out trucking in the Midwest where I run from Wisconsin. Maybe get to say HI someday. Seen Alice stopped at Abbyland in Curtiss. They have a great truck stop and restaurant there too, and can get all the Abbyland products in the store... .
    BTW. A good little parking spot on I80 close to Des Moines is the BP at Colfax just before the west bound scale . Can always get a spot even late at nite as you sure won't get into Loves or Pilot around Des Moines after about 6 pm with all the solar powered truckers done for the day 😂

  • @johnkempter8162
    @johnkempter8162 Před 13 dny +1

    I've never pulled a spread axle trailer so my question is if it adds restrictions to turning space and possible getting into shippers and receivers seeing how brokers don't know or care where they're sending you what is the benefit of pulling one over conventional axle trailers other than looking cool ?

    • @darrencatenacci2737
      @darrencatenacci2737 Před 13 dny +2

      Benefits are easier weight distribution. Better for loads with concentrated weight in short. As an example on flatbed you can get coils weighing 50,000 to 52,000 lbs in 4 feet of trailer. If you belly load that on a tandem it’ll break the trailer in half. Ride much better also.
