    Or their yard dog could have just drug it around all over the yard and didn't give a ####. You never know what really happened.

    I have some people look at me weird wondering what I'm doing, but I always do the zig-zag to look at my tires in the mirror to make sure they are rolling each time I hook to a new trailer. Would suck to ruin a set of brand new tires.

    Made it to the Charlotte OC tonight, pickup at 1pm tomorrow then off to the Carlisle OC for tomorrow night. Charlotte is packed, nowhere to park. Had to park down by the trailers... hope I don't have to to the bathroom during the night lol cause I'm not walking all the way back to the OC from way down here.

    Drop your trailer and bob tail up front. I usually do that when it's full.

    Thanks, I still see no mention of maintenance which with limited info I'm seeing,I would suggest 1500-2000/month. A truck is more needy than any woman you will ever encounter. This combined with your expected salary (you have to pay yourself first)would surely put you in the ninety something range.

    depends on the truck.....I have an '09 Cascadia and I pay around $300 a week. The guys who get new ones pay less in maintenance because of the warranty, but all their money goes to the note, while whatever is in my maintenance account belongs to me (theoretically).
