    Landstar buys some heavy trailers also. Between the aluminum rims and floor in my old trailer I shaved off 1500 pounds. I was 33,500 or so with a 387 and Greatdane SSL.

    I'd say cats add about 45 pounds. Figure 25 pounds of cats. 10 pounds litter. 10 pounds food.

    Toss out the food, and you won't have to worry about the litter

    Just an FYI it’s rained on me since Cedar City all the way to Green River Utah this morning... can’t wait to see what Vail’s got. Weather report looks like a small possibility of thunderstorms. So I’m guessing I’ll get hailed on. :D :D :D

    Came up thru there early this morning — just sprinkled a little outside of CC. Pulled a real DF move — fueled up in Beaver and got coffee —thought I had everything loaded— got to Willard for a P break and couldn’t find my wallet — accused the wife of misplaying it and generally threw a fit. Looked at my phone and there was a text from a couple that wanted me to call because they found my wallet on the I15 on ramp in Beaver. WOW!! After a 100 mile butt chewing from the other half, had to accept that it was my bad. Folks that found it also get a $100 prepaid Visa.
