I am always on the boards and probably at least 30% to 40% listed say NO CURTINS; NO CONESTOGAS. Almost every load I take that says no curtains or conestogas would have fit just fine inside one. For some reason people just don't want to load them. And forget about any crane or gantry loading. Even if you can slide the hoops out of the way they won't give you the load, again, puzzling but just seems to be the way things go. The company I'm leased to had two brand new Utility 48's with conestogas and after a couple months they took the tops off them and run them as regular flats. Just too much of a pain in the ### to keep loaded and moving is what I was told. I'd love to have one though. I'd set fire to my tarps and dance around them! -
Any body have experience with the Eagle/Verdyn system?

Sorry about the slow reply. Its an older design than some of the others. It doesn't stay as tight going down the road as the newer styles. Its definitely sturdier than the others and faster and easier to open from the front with the two inside mounted ratchet straps. It's a good kit for company drivers hauling anything but lumber or drywalI .

I've had the opportunity recently to pull one for several weeks while Buddy of mine's truck was getting a inframe he gave me a very good piece of advice after I was told by two different shippers they would not load me, he said stop before I get to the shipper and open it forward.....after doing so I never had a Nother shipper refuse to load that trailer it just looks like a flatbed with a headboard!!
