mercer transportation

I put wheel covers on my tractor. Have yet to notice any difference. But if it really only give a 2-3% improvement, it might take a longer time span to notice. Also right now I'm not pulling my own trailer so it makes it a little harder to get an accurate reading.

 

Hi guys, I just I would let anybody interested in some snow socks, the petro in oak grove mo has them for $229. There are 2 in a package. I got 2 for my tractor, but couldn't pry open my wallet any further for 2 more for my trailer today. (Grin)

 

It will be interesting to see how those socks work out in the years to come.

 

Those driver appreciation shirts we ordered back in Oct and Nov. Did anybody get their shirts yet? I understand the order deadline was extended till Nov 22, and they were not going to ship until after that. Seems that Dec. 5 and no shirt is a little slow. I talked to the guys in the office, they said give it a little more time.

 

They'll keep the snow out of your wheels

 

I got 3 packs at Sapp Brothers in Salt Lake for $724 got 1 set for my trailer and painted Green marks on the trailer ones they say they r for 255/70 but look really big haven't gotten to use them yet

 

Haven't ran enough flat bed loads since doing the engine to get a new base line but before the rebuild, with rare exception I had no problem maintaining 7.2 to 7.3 loaded out and gets progressively better the less weight. Falls down to 6.3 to 6.5 if I'm having to run the mountains.

 

Well I have to clean them every few days as the rub the rim down if I don't. So at the moment they are just a pain

 

I never really considered aerodynamics to play a part in fuel mileage.

 

After my last trip out here I thought I would have a chance to use mine, but holy crap its in the 50's through wy and ut today. I should be happy for the nice weather. Oh well, maybe next time.
