    I prefer running overnight and OD makes that nearly impossible. With the curfew and attention at scales you could run a legal load paying the same and have somewhat peace of mind

    Think I'll wait. I'm order some lights and run 2 on truck and 1 on trailer. I thought about adding a quick connection to trailer but maybe I'll just splice it at tail end and put a quick connection there. I have a fear of electricity have had it from a kid.. I put a fork in an outlet lol. Although I did suck it up and ran an exhaust temp gauge. Right now it's clamped to my exhaust manifold. Gonna have it taped to get a better reading

    Call Great Dane and ask them their warranty policy on doing that. I could be wrong but you might have to take it to them in order to not void it. Don't forget it's a new trailer lol

    That's why when I hit the road I'm not stopping for months. I'm single, young, and stubborn as hell. Bring on the miles!!!!!!

    Get out of that "miles" mentality. Over here it's only one thing that matters and its "revenue"

    But you gotta cover miles to get that revenue. Just gotta be smart about which miles to cover.

    Ha ha ha yeah. I know. I was being my usual joking self. But I do know that I'll have a lot to learn. Ill be picking everyone's brains for advice. I learned long ago the only dumb question is the question not asked.

    Which brings me to my first question: I see you guys talking about being 10th in place for a load or being #1 on the boards and such. What do those mean exactly?
