    Him: why what's under there.

    Same guy brought an empty airslide out to the rig. Should of saw company man's face. Like you couldn't tell it was pulling the hills off Ohio Rt7 like it was empty lol. Nomac 71.

    Another guy lost a set of trailer duals and just kept going......

    That’s the kind of sandwich you eat with a knife and fork. :)

    Ok, then what’s your take on this?

    A while back I had one of our mechanics tell me that an issue with a steer tire like @PoleCrusher has there is a result of the wheel on the other side being out of balance, due to that side kicking up which in turn apparently would cause the right side to wear on the outside.

    Of course, this is from a guy who claims to have invented anti-lock brakes.... the wheels.... the tires.... the AIR that goes in the tires... :rolleyes:

    I'm usually seeing a deposit of 800 -1100. I'll be at this game a year in 3 weeks. I don't think that's bad. More than I could get in my home town at anything I could get... And zero bs from the company.bkinda hard to feel like it's a horrible situation...
