    I'm guessing a gutted interior if you run regionally, and probably smaller fuel tanks? Ever since I got more involved with bulk full time I've liked the "how low can we get the tare weight" game.

    I like the idea of a Peterbilt 567 with a X12 Cummins, 58" flat top and twin 110 gallon tanks. One dealer on Youtube says the 567 flat top X15 weighs in at 18,500. For a 15 litre and full emissions, that's crazy light. X12 weighs 1000 lbs less than a X15 and can get 500/1700.

    With a 1350 cu.ft. pneumatic, that could mean 27,000 tare.

    @TripleSix I'm on my third adult beverage moving onto four. Nothing special, just regular Coors "Banquet". Apparently a good beer for satiating a bigger thirst according to some folks in Atlanta. For $2.19 CAD a beer after tax in MB, I can't argue.

    Suffice to say, we all expect you to steal the show with "When Doves Cry".

    @sawmill

    That tunnel you posted a pic of earlier, is it bordered with a big lake on one side? I went to Wyoming, N and S Dakota and Montana years ago on vacation. We went in a tunnel just like that bordering a lake, then followed it around and saw a nice waterfall on the back side of the lake(where the dam was).
