Ok a bit embarrassing but I need a refresher from my flatbedders. I have just been hauling lumber locally for over a year now and the reg book is confusing me at the moment.
I have 3/8 grade 70 chains and Standard ratchet binders. Apparently rated at 6,600 lbs. I'm picking up a piece of cargo that is 27,000 lbs and has four tie down points. Are 4 direct tie down chains enough or can I only use 50 percent of the WLL of each chain?I remember that there is a simple way to calculate it. Can I just double the WLL of the chain? Can't remember If someone could respond with a simple breakdown of how they calculate and short explanation that would be great! Thanks.

Do they make 12 volt microwaves for trucks?
MAN, where have you BEEN???
Well packrat, right now I'm in Charleston SC...😁. I've just been cruising around driving locally. Then the money wasn't enough so I'm back for more. Still trying to find my place. Still no tickets or accidents thank God.

Is this something like what you’re looking for? Seems pretty expensive for a microwave. 🤣
Yeah dude f---orget that. I'm not spending that much on a microwave. For that price I could just breathe on the food till it gets hot.

Yeah I'm pretty sure they wouldn't mind me having an inverter installed but I was trying to avoid that if possible. I'm headed out on Sunday so was looking for a quick solution. No worries. Guess it's cold food and snacks in the truck for the time being! Onwards

Some of ya might remember me. I got my start trucking about two and a half years ago now. Im just about to start running this dedicated route for GE in the south. Here's the issue: I need to put a microwave in my truck but don't have a power inverter. I can't seem to fine any regular 12v microwaves....do they make those? All I can find is the little oven things. Those are nice but not what I'm looking for. What's the most cost effective way to get a microwave in there functioning properly? Thanks!

Regional companies Florida panhandle?
Hello! Some of you may remember me when I used to post a bit while still a rookie. Well, now I have about four and a half years experience with zero accidents, zero citations, zero anything on any report LOL. I guess I'm in a position where I can be a little picky so I am looking for something home weekly or even throughout the week that still pays great. Currently hauling gasoline with x endorsement. I have already looked into groen**** transportation, Schneider national dedicated tanker, Martin transportation, and a few others. Anybody have a lead on something good? I'm trying to find the company I can retire at.
