It's hard on the body.

Especially in one of them ball busting gliders...Literally.

When I first started running extraboard I was thinking a 450 mile run was s good run and plenty of money until everyone told me it wasn't. I'm glad I got away from thinking I need 600+ miles a day to survive. It's hard on the body.

I'll second that.....

Man you aren't lying. I swear the tandems come off the ground at times.

I'll never own a key to a KW glider

I got an FL Columbia and the drive axle has a mind of its own sometimes as in bounces or doesn't grip the road on turns even with gentle throttle.

They couldn't set air bags if it came with instructions and a photo album... You don't set each air bag for 40K lbs.

Back when I ran extra board for Estes, you could run 7 days a week and log or not log it anyway you wanted. Ah the good ole days of trucking....lol

The new gliders ain't got no air bags.

Oh, I remember those.. Yep, that was loophole purchase... But still, they can't set a truck to ride like it's suppose to..
