My first permitted load

Ok so i picked up a 2 stop plate load of steel plate out of 2 of the arcelor mittal plants in eastern pa today. Load was billed at 50,000lbs. Once I'm loaded the weights are just shy of 51,000 lbs. My with truck and trailer i can scale 49,000 with full fuel. I'm currently at 81,000lbs. We knew this was a possibility that I'd need permits. So i scaled at a cat scale and sent the boss my axle weights.

I'm told by a friend of mine who does specialized with pgt that he probably won't get an over weight permit because he doesn't think they will issue one on a load that can be divided up and sent on seperate trucks. Its 2 stacks of 7 plates each. So is this true? Can he not get an over weight permit for this plate load?

 

Then this will be interesting come tomorrow morning

 

Doesn't make sense why they will permit multiple coils but not something like what i have

 

Well... outs only going like 10 miles into ohio

 

Even if we have that fuel conversation, i still couldn't haul it
