Is 410 hp too weak to haul grain ?

Keep buying the cheap fuel and your quarterly fuel tax bill will be astronomical. Get your motor carrier road atlas out. Find the states you travel in or thru. Find the fuel tax amount for that state. Now find the pump price of where your going to fuel and subtract the tax and that is your cost of fuel. But you better know your avg fuel mileage and buy fuel in each state you pass thru. Alot of people don't buy fuel in ILLINOIS
Because they think it is high priced. But sutract the tax out of it and it's not that bad. Indiana has a fuel surcharge that isn't included in the price of fuel. Other states have little charges here and there. It will be listed in the fuel tax table of a rand mcnally motor carrier atlas.

 

For example, I generally get 150.00 to 175.00 fuel tax rebate every quarter. Better to pay to much and get a refund than to not buy enough and get hit with a 4 to 500.00 ifta bill. They are going to get it one way or the other. Pay now or pay later but you will pay

 

First truck I drove running harvest was a 1973 R600L, 235 aluminum frame 5 speed. Old, Loud, Rough, and Tough. Had 10.00 - 20 bias ply tires with dayton wheels and 60 gallon tanks. Then I graduated up to a 79 Freightliner with an 8V92 Detroit and a 15 speed Roadmaster. Fun times.

 

He backs in. There were a couple of brothers around here used to run tall stacks and they backed in everywhere.

 

Mine are an optical illusion they are only 11'6".

 

But it got the job done. I hauled many 50k lb loads of steel with that 238 detroit. Now a days most guys have never driven anything under 450 hp and 1750 torque.

 

Shocks? We don't need no stinking shocks. We got these rubber blocks.

 

I wish I got the chance to drive one of them sticks
