    When I get empty after I deliver this. I. Going to a cat scale to get an empty weight. Then drop my trailer and reweigh. Last time I scaled it was at the elevator and it was an axle group at a time. So on my way home I'm gonna hit the cat scales.

    Tried to call on that star and couldn't get an answer. Found some 2018/2019 trucks with 150k ish on the clock for around $120k. In this market....thats good. So a 2 year old truck for half the price as new......something to think about.

    If I get 11.5/12k on the steer, I'm really doing something.

    But I'm only 29,900 with a steel alum trailer built like a bridge.

    26,400 with aluminum hopper.

    I dont understand the desire for a heavy spec truck unless your running 120k plus everyday. But maybe thats just my mechanical thinking.
