Looks like the rumor was true...saw one of the NEW ones in FUL yesterday,

As this will be a city trl...won't be long before it looks like all the old 48's!

Yep. We have had these new 48 lifts ones in service for like a month now.

Ahh yes, remembering the days of no shrink wrap, no pallet jacks (2 wheel dolly only), no power steering, no a/c no radio, no automatic trans, no liftgates.

These photos tell the story of spoiled city drivers.

I would not say we are spoiled,four liftgate trailers for 30+ city drivers as of now with a few more coming soon....The rest get the freight off the best we can with more residential del and nursing home stops than ever....The days of rolling 55 gallon drums off on some tires and hoping it does not bust are over ..The more liftgates the better ...

I didn't say they were not a good thing. I just remember when.
