    I have trouble finding my ducks currently, let alone getting a row of them

    I know what you're saying, lately I feel like I'm just floating around with the decoys wondering we're I'm at.

    You guys actually have ducks to put in a row?! Color me impressed!

    Im curious why his set up weighs 70k lbs emtpy. While I understand that weights with properly equipped trucks and trailers get real heavy, that seems like a lot for a 7 axle setup, no?

    My guess without knowing exactly is that it's an 80-85T 13 axles stretch trailer being run as a 7 axles setup. Doesn't have the jeep or booster with him. Still has the Flip neck on it though from @blairandgretchen description.

    Bingo.

    Has to get to the Monday appointment, which is a LCV2 (Long combination Vehicle 2) class .

    Just got his permits yesterday - Wednesday. 300 miles added so far to route - into Colorado. Has not received permits for New Mexico or Texas.

    Needs to take LCV2 class in order to go and pick up the jeep (financed by family member) - to utilize the weight potential of the unit.

    Next class September. Currently paying bills at the house using cash advances, because all the settled funds go towards paying his red file at LS.

    Fun living.

    Pole running $2.20/mile, chase $2. No go for both from Monday.

    Is LCV2 a Landstar thing? Never heard of it before.
