    Balls to the wall today. Finished a service on a 30 ton rock truck that I started last night, inspected 2 other 30 tonners and checked over a medium sized wheel loader.

    I’ve never weighed mine but with the studio sleeper, 300+ wheelbase, Cat motor, and apu it’s got to be north of 20k easily.

    This thing is a pig..

    Never weighed mine to be honest, I’d say it’s all of 18,000+ though. I could be wrong.

    Aero/flattop with a 270 or shorter WB I’d imagine would put you close if not under 18500

    I’d think anyway

    I feel like 270 is about where I'd like to be but 72 studio is what I've been looking at.

    That limit is for hopper but idk if the end dump has a limit. Obviously lighter I am more I'd make plus they pay more per if you weigh less

    Hunting or roping have always been my release. To me, I think there are only so many variables I can control. Do not get me wrong, I love what I do for a living. I love having to think several steps ahead to try to be as efficient as possible (@Oxbow is the best person I know for thinking ahead on projects). I just really need that "time to myself" out in nature hunting or roping. I think the pressure is off in the sense that I already know that hunting or roping won't make me money. I'm donating money at most ropings. At work, I'm trying to be as inexpensive as I can (which is ironic because, behind @Oxbow , I spend the most according to bank statements) while trying to make clients happy. I'm blessed to have the mentor I do.

    Yes ma'am I do have a restroom. The fee for the public is $248.62.

    What? Outrageous you say? Well so is your job, the entity you work for, and the fact that everyone puts up with your crap.

    So how bad do you need my restroom?

    Oh and btw, tp is extra.
