[QUOTE="raceanoncr, post: 1157412, member: 6408"] As a feeder driver (and, yes, having to unload many in slack times) I drove many 40s, 28s, 26s and even 24s. When we had to pull MT or loaded flat rail boxes, it was a pain in the arse compared to the drop frames, drive wise, that is. Then we started getting the flat floor 45s, 28s, etc. and I STILL preferred driving the drop frame. Seemed to be much smoother ride, be it loaded or MT, doubles or single. The drop part of the frame (IMO) kept some of the wind from underneath and made a much smoother airflow. BUT, I was just a driver. This, boys and girls, was just my observation. [/QUOTE]
