Your post was right above one that said "what is my fuel tank capacity", so I'm thinking you removed your fuel tank. Then your first comment was "I loved it", so I'm scratching my head! Then it dawned on me that you're now a tanker yanked and it all makes sense. Enjoy

Let me guess, it wasn't food grade.

And to the OP, wait until you have to sit on a scale for 15 mins, then they say "pull around and move your 5th wheel"
Or they tell you to release your brakes on the scale while it's still surgingBennysPennys Thanks this. -

Stops on the ramp into the open bay, rolls back and then 'horses' it up an into the bay. pops the brakes and jumps out, grabs the new guy by the shoulders and drags his nose close to the spike in the tire.
All the while, attracted by his shenanigans, I'm standing there listening to the acid [15+ lbs/gal] sloshing back and then it surges back, just as the guy's nose gets close; BAM it hits the front head and the whole unit chirps forward around 6 - 8 inches leaving skid marks on the concrete.
The kid was cool and didn't leave his own skid marks.spindrift, Pamela1990 and Bean Jr. Thank this.
