    At the petro off i65 Alabama exit 299... awesome place by the way. It got me wondering. Does cfi allow us to swap out our steering wheels? I’d love to get a custom one.

    No they do not. They don't let us modify anything in company trucks.

    You know of any weight station between Birmingham and Madison AL? Load is 42k but gonna be running a very tight schedule. Won't bother scaling if there's no station before then. It's a picked up relay from a drop yard so I'd like to
    Hope the previous driver has the tandems setup anyways but there was no scale ticket in the registration box
