    That is a light load, is it unusual to get a load like this?

    Extremely. I actually went back inside to verify that the load was correct. The mountains are gonna be a breeze on this trip.

    Wow, that's incredible. It makes you wonder how the customer even profits from it. My dad had a load of flowers once that was like 1500 pounds or so. Wasn't coast to coast though. And he made some good money on that load. Craziness.

    I hauled a dry van load of those little styrofoam peanuts like they use in the shipping boxes out of Delaware. It was like there wasn’t any weight at all, got great fuel mileage!

    I wondered why they just didn't throw it on a straight truck. I wasn't complaining though. I like the light loads.

    I bet it was! I'm in the mountains right now and my dash is showing 8mpg. That's insane.

    I hit 9.5 once a long time ago, but haven't gotten this close since.
