A credit score (also called a FICO Score, so named for the company that provides the score used by 90% of lenders) helps lenders determine their risk in lending you money. Your history of paying bills on time and your monthly debts determine your credit score, which can range from 300 (worst) to 850 (best). There are three national credit bureaus (Equifax, Experian and TransUnion) that maintain credit reports. FICO summarizes the results into three FICO scores, one for each bureau.
The width of a semitruck or semitrailer varies depending on the cargo and manufacturer. Department of Transportation regulations limit the width to 102 inches â except in Hawaii, where the maximum width is 108 inches. U.S. federal regulations correspond to international standards, which limit width to 2.6 meters.
The purpose of a semi-trailer is to carry freight. There are several types of semi-trailers including dry freight vans, refrigerated vans (reefers), flatbeds (standard, step-deck, lowboy, double drop, etc.) and tank trailers. Trailer sizes vary, but the most common sizes today are 53' or 48' in length and 102 or 96 in width. Semi trailers are also referred to as truck trailers and are typically listed under the Heading: Trailers-Truck in most phone directory yellow pages.
