    By the way, it took me 2 phone call and one day to get my new trailer added.
    First to the qualification center where I got told I could not have the number I wanted, second to Rockford, got it done in house and they called me, got my 5 digit number.

    That face doesn't say "Pass me on the inspection and give the sticker, please"

    It says

    "Pass me on the inspection or I'm going to shred you faster than a fraudster shreds paperwork as they're being raided by the Feds"

    Nice, what’s you’re empty weight, 38k? I haven’t hooked up to my step since I got this FBCS because I’m too lazy to tarp. I believe it’s 1% per axle, but I’ve been gone a year now, so who knows.
     
    blairandgretchen Thanks this.

    Empty is still right around 42,500 - extendable step weighs almost the same as the flat extendable.

    Good to see you - I figured that FBCS would spoil you.

    Sometimes, when you’re a good human bean, other good beans offer you their findings.

    These 2 literally fell off a truck. He made several attempts to find the rightful owners, with no luck. They can go on the flat.

    These puppies are a bit scarce, and the only caliber I was short on. Thanks!

    I was only meant to go and get a truck wash, but it turned into a load. Well, half a load. 700 loaded. $7/mile on the board - or $2.60/mile all miles TTT if I deliver and DH home. Promise I’ll try to find a back haul.
