    I'd assume the log truck....

    Looks alright to me, if they're all tight.

    @Gunner75 is that thing on your passenger side between fuel tank and wheel just for holding tarps? As best as I can tell from picture it looks almost like a open box?

    Here ya go @HalpinUout best I can get without taking everything out. It's a custom box that our shop guys build for most of our conventional trucks. We have our own tank saddles that sit in the front section.

    Stakes seem attached to the trailer. Looks like 4" synthetic webbing straps. Straps look good an tight. So that satisfies 3.1.2.

    Second stack from the left, the log on the bottom isn't in contact with the stakes. First stack on left, two outside logs aren't in contact with at least two stakes/bolsters/etc, but it extends beyond the stake and is resting securely on other logs. So that could be considered an issue for 3.1.3.

    I don't see any DOT/MOT officer having a problem with it. I can't see the top, but it looks good from the angle shown. Personally, I would have thrown three over each stack.
