[color=#000F22ost_uid0]My guess would be reefer,since you can use as a dry van too.
Not knocking flatbed,i've done a little of it too,but it just seems the reefer would be more versatile in my opinion.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#8D38C9ost_uid0]Yeah and after about 6 months of tanker yanking I could retire to some ocean front property in Arizona!!!!

Unfortunatly, gas haulers pay is staying the same despite the sudden inrush of gas and diesel prices. Tis a shame!!!

Although, an enterprising person or two could do quite well in the "Black" market version of gas hauling... :aktion088:[/colorost_uid0]
