    I know this video is several years old. I live in Vacaville and always pass by them. I run OTR out of Iowa. I ran one of their rivals in the area. Mike's company is still the best company in Northern California. Their trucks are all new. They always have trucks for sale with low miles sitting by their fence line. I'm working on becoming owner op and I'm eyeballing on their equipment. I had buddies of mine that worked for them for years, they never had complaints. I mostly did lowboys in fairfield so I never had the chance to work for them personally. Finally last year we have a local truck show in Dixon. They were out their with their beautiful trucks.

    Them Lowrie boys are working fools. And their trucks always look top notch. I remember back when they got their first hay wagons.

    I live and Cali, and I pass by one of their yards, I’m not sure if it’s their only one or if there’s more, but it’s by the Dixon area, near the Yolo country area, and they have a tonnnn of trucks, and they are nice

      Law Enforcement (revenue collectors) make big money off of any perceived violation by a big rig. Broken taillight, etc. Those trucks looks just like an open bank vault to them.

    • @oregonfordguy9812
      @oregonfordguy9812 6 років тому

      Strassenelefant the California hwy trucks are single for weight and California laws don't allow long length on double trailer so single makes it short.

    • @jbdixs
      @jbdixs 9 років тому +2

      Less weight of the tractor (Lighter then a tandem tractor)so more pay load plus it's gives you a little better play on the weight see if you go with a single axle tractor and single axle trailers you can get a little more not much, but just a little.
      Like this Steer is 10,000 Drivers 20,000 First trailer is 20,000 Dolly is 20,000 Back trailer is 20,000 total 90,000 Lbs, but you can only run 80,000 in all states. Now if you go with a Tandem tractor and trailer you are looking at 10,000 on the Steer, 34,000 on the drivers and 34,000 on the trailer =78,000 Lbs. It takes a some skill on now to load it just right and over time you know just how much Hay to put where on the trailers. In Calf you see more Single axle Belly Dumps then Tandems
      because of the weight laws, but I live in NV and we pull Two Tandem Axle Belly Dumps and we can run up to 129,000 Lbs not like we are at that all the time most of the time I am pushing around 135,000. Hope this helps.

      Well looking at their company next to i80 every day. I don't think they have any issues with the emissions or even replacing trucks. They do have their own machanics and a huge shop. All of their trucks are new and they look real good.. I considered working for them when I was looking for local work but they were just toon commute to and from on a daily. My uncles long time friend works at mike lowrie and he's been there for like 15 years and has nothing but good things to say about them. They even hire college students during their break for a seasonal gig to help them out. And that says a lot about that company
