    I just got my cdl 2 months ago I’m a owner operator. I have a Ram 3500 with a 4 car carrier and I have two 9 car carriers I should have got a ez loader instead of the 9 car haulers. It’s so many hydraulics on both of them. And they are older one is a 2001 the other is a 2005.
    You never considered getting your own truck and own authority ? You are Definitely a pro at car hauling I owned a car dealership before I got into this. Sometimes I want to be with a company so I don’t have to worry about maintenance etc. But the amount of money I can make as owner operator is so much greater and that makes it worth the risk of doing it on my own. I definitely acknowledge and respect your expertise and would love to talk to you sometimes just to get your opinion on some things
    Be safe out there on the road and keep doing the amazing job that you are doing !

      I owned my own equipment for 11 years. I had 3 stingers on the road when I decided to sell out. The main reason is I needed better health insurance for my family. I was paying $24k a year with a $12k deductible for health insurance and that was the best policy offered in Tennessee. That’s why I became a company driver. As for the choice between quick loaders or stackers they both work very well and really once you get good the quick loader really only saves you 10-15min per load so it’s not night and day. But if I had the choice between the two and the quick loader was an 80ft I would choose the quick loader every time lol

    I was that team player that picked my loads from the bottom of the barrel. The stuff nobody else wanted but had to go. And much dispatcher knew that. Then when I needed or wanted a particular load going to a particular place he would build it special for me. I suffered through a lot of crap loads, but it helped me in the end.

      @@CarcarrierTv Yeah man that's how I try to operate for sure to do in this car hauling thing. By the way I've run the CX6 trailer a few times our company started to get a few of those in recently a lot of the guys that run them for a little bit start to like them but but some guys go back to their high rails and don't really like them. It's just like anything once you to get used to it it's a much faster trailer to load than the high rail but you cannot stack the cars of course.... Well except for the front 2 in the trailer you can kind of stack those because that deck is independent.But anyway hope you get your truck back soon buddy stay safe.

      Yea I’ve now been running it does nearly 2 months at this point I’m thinking this might just be the truck I’m in and they didn’t tell me they switched me lol. But yea it’s not a horrible trailer I just personally like the high rail or quick loader better. I never thought I’d like an 80fter but I really do love that trailer
