    That’s not the worst looking thing I’ve ever seen.

    I personally look at “riding in style” not like most people do, which is to assume some sort of commonly accepted “modern” definition of it. I prefer to say “riding in YOUR style”, which for me is my manual transmission regular cab Cummins powered Ram with the sound of the pilot injection turned off. If anyone else’s ride puts as big a grin on their face as I get, then all is well in both of our worlds. :D

    It is placarded flammable liquid when hauled in a tanker. I think Indian River has a hauls placarded sprits.

    At a former company, they had a number of permits for transporting distilled/spirits and Alcoholic beverages products. Is that still required?

    That I have seen. Full is less a problem than residue.
    Had a crash involving a tequila tank and a live chicken truck. Tequila tank was mostly empty. It did start a fire. Often referred to as the great tequila chicken massacre and fire.
