    I was surprised how much it had changed since I was last there 5-6 years ago.

    Having so much fun riding around the country with an empty trailer figured it would twice as good if I brought a second one.

    Had a truck break down a couple weeks ago under a load. Another company we work with repowered the load. They took the trailer back to their yard for storage about halfway between the job and home. Finished the final load for that project and grabbed this on my way home.

    Spent most of December hauling structural steel to get galvanized and then to a project in Oklahoma.

    I dunno man looks to me like you only halfway loaded according to the guage. Plenty of room to keep swinging that needle.

    Well, you’re not all wrong.
    I had half the gauge yet, nor was it stacked up the 13’6”.
    I guess I wasn’t loaded. :D
    One thing I will note. At 100 psi on the gauge, I once weighed 105,000.

    years ago, I had a customer wanted to send a return. He asked me how many board feet of hemlock I could scale. I didn’t know the answer to that. I know I could take 11 units of 2 x 6 16 Doug fir- So that’s what I loaded. She was a little heavy.
