Not much you can do when there are high winds and you’re empty or loaded really light.
Idk why man but whenever you make a post I always just have a feeling you would really like flatbed. Call me crazy but I think you should try it one of these days. I don’t do flatbed anymore but in almost 8 months doing it I didn’t have to shut down once because of wind
I'm really contemplating it. I'm very critical of myself and really take a cautious approach to anything trucking related. I guess I don't always feel confident about my backing and just want to make sure that if I switch, I'll be able to do it with the same level of success I've been doing in dry van. I am really burnt out on wind. Probably 75 percent of my loads are light.
Just got done hauling a whopping 1700 pound load across Kansas. Ugh.

TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007.

We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.
