    In CT we max our trailers out in the summer (3300-2000-1100-2700) 9100 gal

    In the winter we knock it back to 8800 gal, I usuallyscale back my 1100 or 2000 gal compartment depending on the different products.

    I load diesel 3300 -1600 - 0 - 2700

    Was he the safety guy for that company? I know I met the safety guy, if that's what they call him, once or twice. Gentry down south was dependable for us and a good guy. But you know how it is, no one can be liked by every one.

    when I worked there he was the boss...you never knew what you were doing and if you were working until 2-3 hours before..this was before cell phones so you were stuck by your phone all day..and if you missed the call..then you didn't work.

    I'm sure that's the guy. I can't say much about the guy but I will say I did get feed back on your operations up there and you guys were on the ball.
