    I went from being 13'8" to 14'5". Good thing I was low to begin with. That whole load was a normal mess. They sent us axle weights using their truck. But failed to tell us they used a long daycab. So after 6 hrs of waiting for it to be ready, getting it, weighing it, then returning it to shipper, off I went 7hrs to get the jodog. 7 hrs back after 10hr break. Need less to say Friday delivery turned into Saturday, then Monday because of no movement in NM on Sunday. All in a days work...lol

    Just a little feed hopper for a hot plant. Only 14'8" tall. Another driver was about 30 minutes ahead of me with a piece that was 16'7" so hammer down, he would clear the lines for me.
