  Are Your Boat and Travel Trailer Tires Safe? Tires are designed and manufactured differently depending on their intended use. The tires on your car or truck are very different from those on a travel trailer. Passenger vehicles need tires that can corner safely, for example, which is achieved largely by the design of flexible sidewall tires. Passenger vehicle tires must also handle braking and acceleration better than trailer tires. Towing Vehicle Tires vs. Travel Trailer Tires Flexible sidewalls allow a tire to expand and contract so that if you take a sharp right turn, the tires on the right side of your vehicle will “lean” into the turn. Passenger tires also have limited shock-absorbing capabilities for a more comfortable ride. Travel trailer tires are only designed to follow the towing vehicle. Sidewall flexing would cause the trailer to sway back and forth. As the sidewalls flex with the contours of the road it results in the trailer leaning to the left or right. Hence the sway.

  If you’re new to trucking or thinking about a driving career, you’ll run into a lot of confusing industry jargon, starting with all the different types of trucks and trailers on the road. Understanding the various types of equipment used in the industry might help you find a career you didn’t know existed. First, some words and phrases for new drivers to avoid. Things Truck Drivers Don't Say: Box Truck, Semi, or Big Rig Terms like "box truck" create confusion. A truck built on a single frame should be called a straight truck.

The trucking industry only uses semi-trailers. When not hooked to a tractor, the front of the trailer rests on two retractable supports called landing gear.

Do you need professionally written blog posts and articles? There are plenty of online businesses that provide this service, but only a few worth your money. Sometimes a freelancer is a better solution. If you only need a few posts a month  and won’t allow your blog filled with poorly written drivel, then you'll have better luck trying out a freelancer than going with one of the content mills. Misspellings, glaring grammar errors, or an amateurish style will scare visitors away from your site. You’ll get all the right keywords from the content mills, usually anyway, repeated the required number of times but rarely will you get a piece that is well-written. There are exceptions of course, but hiring a freelancer means you are always working with an author of your choosing. Not just the first person that notices your job listing or is randomly chosen. Don’t get me wrong. There are some very good content providers that are able to deliver large amounts of quality mat

Most pieces are between 350 words and 1,500 words. If your organization prefers flat-rate pricing I am happy to bill that way. Example: a standard blog post between 450 and 550 words delivered for a  flat rate of $40.00 By the word, my rate is between .07 and .10 cents depending on the amount of research and things like needing to follow a very detailed style guide for your brand. Adhering to some style guides and doing more than the normal amount of research takes longer so these types of posts are .10 cents per word. It's important that research be thorough and well sourced. I also pride myself on strictly following these style guides. It's important to you, so it's important to me. A 500-word post usually requires somewhere between a 1/2 hour to 1 hour of research. Of course, there are exceptions but this basic research is included for any post. So, an article requiring a minimal amount of research and no other time-consuming details is .07 cents per word. St
