    Steel on steel. What applies the clamping pressure? If there is no clamping pressure it will vibrate. Steel vibrating against steel equals wear. Wearing through your frame is heck of a lot more extensive than a drill bit and a few bolts.

    Why the heck did you accept a load that you can't haul?

    I misread the notes. I saw the part on rear overhang not front... I think I canceled it went back n hit refused and now it doesn't say pre selected

    Yes the video addresses that. But who knows how long those things last.

    So remind me, why the heck did I come to FL? You guys have this sticky stuff down here that just sticks to your skin. And what was I thinking when I stated I could do 3900 in 6 days? This is too much like work. I got here this morning (about 12 hours ago). I have about 2 hrs on my 70. Need to deliver and pick up in the morning then sit till midnight and run the last load up to IL. After that I might need another few weeks off to recover. LOL

    Yuck....im doing like 1100 miles in 10 days....hard work playing this much golf. Ok, 1100 miles in 7 days technically, but if I don't find anything satisfying or close enough to me for Friday it will be 10 days plus how many ever miles I deadhead over the weekend

    That's more like it.

    I did this to myself. Took the load to CA after you grabbed my NAS load lol. Wanted off the west coast so much I grabbed a load here (which I never do) cause there was an immediate load to IL just a couple of miles from my delivery. It wasn't until I booked that load that I remembered we had this 70 hour rule thingy. So I'll get unloaded/loaded when the sun comes up then sit till midnight to leave for IL on recaps as my 70 is down to 8 mins. Lol

    I didn't take your NAS load, the other truck did, lol. I got lucky, not only did I book those 2 NAS loads, but I had Sunday and Monday off between them, and EPS load fell in my lap because of it.
