    I personally wouldn’t roll my tarp till I was pulled in where it’s dry ! Hauling hopper bottom is what I do don’t like a messy trailer

    Most Bulk haulers load with about 1/2 full fuel tanks at most! lol just incase you get loaded a little fat!

    Are these places made for an ultra loft. Maybe just the camera but doesn't look like it. I think I'm starting this coming week but I have an ultra loft.

      There are a few places you can have an ultra loft. You can deliver to Morristown with an ultra loft, but you can't load at Cardinal Ethanol with an ultra loft

      I would suggest nothing taller than a Unibilt sleeper if your pulling a hopper or bulk aggregate trailer, you will be limited with a 13 foot 6 inch tall truck. you may have to back into some places to load, any facility built in the last 10-20 years is set up to take any size truck, it should be a big deal either way, but i would hit a lot of loading conveyers if i had taller stacks, my stacks are about 8 inches taller taller than my unibilt sleeper and ive knocked one off many times!!! depends where your loading from, you generally want truck to be about as tall as trailer and you can go anywhere, not worry about having to back into get loaded, there are tons of loads going to old places not even built for semis, they were built for straight trucks and grain wagons in 1950! be aware

    65 mph trucks?

      Yep. Mostly county roads and 2 lane state routes. You're not going much faster than that anyway

      @@brianmoses7381 yep and most trucks cant pull the 80K+ gross load (we run 95K with overloads in the west) up a hill faster than 55-60 mph any way. you want to get rid of that governor when your running empty, it'll be the difference between getting one more loaded today or having to wait till tomorow morning, then your next day is starting from behind

      i see it all the time, some guys just dont care if its not their grain, but honestly a little drizzle for 5-10 mins waiting in line wont hurt anything, if it starts really raining the terminal will get on the radio and tell you to close your tarps until your under a roof, not all probe stations have a roof over them so you kinda gotta get the top a little wet, doesn't hurt anything but it will make whatever your hauling stick to the inside hopper trailer.

      that sucks when you get to a new place and pull in one of the 4 stops the wrong way, we have all done it! we are all rookies when pulling into grain terminal for the first time! they have signs, it seems that you generally need to make a round then your a pro!

      @@greggostrowski3632 yea these prime hoppers are not gonna be the most welcome trucks at the terminals! lol Im far enough west we dont see any mega carriers names on any hoppers its all O/O with stretched Petes and pusher axles and tag axles with overloads. I'm interested to see if Prime will try to haul aggregate with these base model hoppers???
