First trip with an open deck in a long time, 48,500 lbs square tubing

 

More of that butt ugly FL one

 

The strap you put accros the front...................i would have put some protection in the 2 places where it goes over the edges.

 

Picked some lumber today for a change.



We scaled out perfect..



U guys ever done that ? Think that is like the truckers equivelent of a hole in one in golf

 

Thank you, actually after I took the pic and was doing a final walk around check I did put two plastic edge protectors between the strap and drum edge. Appreciate the feedback. There is definetly an art form to this. As I've said before I had some experience in the military with open deck, but each piece is proving to be it's own challenge.

 

Scale's broke. You're actually 1k over weight.

 

Once, loading a boatload of freight off the street while still with R&L, thought I was heavy, ran back to the terminal anyways. Paperwork added up to 47,773, which was about max legal for the unit I had and put it across scales to see when I got home. 34K/34K/12K and a half tank of fuel to boot.

 

Lol i told the guy in the office , asked him if they had rigged the scale somehow to make it read 80k for every truck lol... He laughed and said " i been doing this 15 years and ive never seen a truck scale out exactly 80'" ... i know the closest i ever been was like 79.9 before now. And i know its accurate cuz my air gauges was reading dead on the money

 

Maybe once a year I get that. Happened at Lowes twice in 8 weeks..... They figured out exactly what they could put on those suckers.

 

Around here we love pictures
