    Fair enough. We got multiple tickets for our trucks saying Smokey Point Dist. Instead of Smokey point Distributing like our MCS-150 says. All buy one scale in less then a week, bunch of pricks.

    Did they say there was a minimum size to the lettering? Like, instead of messing up your truck, could you put it in little tiny letters?

    I think the only state that you would possibly cover in your region would be Colorado, but that’s only west of Denver… At least that’s what the signage they post during the winter months…

    Ya can’t read it but you can see the size of the letters. The original letters were the size of the LLC. I pealed those of and replaced them with what you see. Then years later we went for INC to LLC and that’s the size we had on file for my truck. It’s the wrong color to, after a while I don’t even notice it anymore. 630B94E5-9EAA-43C4-9662-8DF6B91AFF52.jpeg

    Yes, keep em with you for Colorado. Doesn't matter what mile markers, you have to carry them with you if you're running in that state during their chain months. Besides, I'd rather have them and not need them than vise versa. I've only used them once in 15 years and that was to get out of a parking lot bobtail, but I still carry just in case
     
    cdavis188 and MidWest_MacDaddy Thank this.
