Flat Bed Expedited Freight

guest · Dec 4, 2005

I think there was a post about this a while back, but why are there no flat bed straight trucks with sleepers? I see them every now and then, but they're rare. It seems like lots of flatbed loads I see would fit on a 22' or 24' straight truck deck and if the truck had tandems you could carry a lot of weight, so I don't see any obvious reason that this type of truck would not be profitable to run. I occasionally see the flat bed straight truck with one RV on the deck and one being towed.

I'd be scared to sign on with a company called Oneway Express. Sounds like there would be a lot of deadheading.
