    You may be right. I don't doubt that. Just throwing out where I got my weight.

    Soda cans are thinner and double the size of while still lighter than a cat food can.

    I had a water bottle(empty) load, was about 12,000lbs for 150,000 bottles.

    Then they say "why did you leave the door?"
    Umm "you green lighted me ?"
    Them: "doesn't matter - go back to your door"

    Who makes up these idiotic rules? I guess they treat us like idiots, so we give them idiots for drivers, and it's a never ending spiral. Downwards

    I'm so glad I don't pull a van anymore.....
