    Appreciate the info. That's exactly what I will do. I'm not worried about the thieves since I'm not paying for it and they can take their good old time if thy want. I decided to reset after this load anyway so I can have full hours while booking my way back to Texas. So gonna deadhead to Jersey and enjoy mom's home cooking for the weekend.

    It's these pearls of wisdom that make some places just bearable. Kind of like my local chicken dealer that can be pretty sketchy on live loads and cause a bad day for many a driver. I kind of had to learn the hard way to get around that.

    I drop my trailer half a day early and bobtail home. I get personal time back and they get to my trailer whenever they get to it. I show up around 0500 the next morning, hook & go. I'm well rested, they're happy, and we all have a good day LOL.

    Picked up a heavy ### load at Church and Dwight. Shockingly it's loaded perfect. Drives and tandems are within 300 lbs at the California setting.
