    With what axle limits? 27K each?

    Biggest machine I’ve had on 5 axles BTW was a 300 LC6 Komatsu excavator.

    I'd love an hour of good conversation with any of you guys. Even though there's a handful that i'm really looking forward to meeting. I'm a sponge. I get it and i remember it the 1st time. I always say this forum is my classroom. And you guys are the teachers.

    Axle limits depend on the states traveled and route traveled. Anyone that’s running 5 axles heavy consistently definitely knows his craft.

    I met a parking lot driver a few weeks ago he could fit 11 cars if 2 were tiny behind his old Freightliner FLA.

    Here’s my opinion. Take it for what you paid for it. You won’t make anymore more doing OD. So if you are happy with the work just stay put. That’s really what it’s all about(money) unless it’s an ego thing. If it’s an ego thing have at it, but at the end of the day it’s just freight and you’re just a driver. I’m not saying that to dis anybody. I’m just saying it’s just a job. A job that’s been done before you and will be done after you.
