    That's a little closer than I like my preloaded loads to be... Full diesel, 3/4 DEF, 5/8 Reefer fuel.

    Agreed did that retirement thing for 5 years. Funny when you're working all you can think of is retirement. Then you do it you just might find out eh not so hot.

    @tramm01 We carry iron in the winter... I've only had to chain up a time or 2 but its always been to get out of a receiver when the snow was really bad. I actually think they are easier to chain up than duals... Dont have to fight getting in between the the 2 tires to get the chains situated right.

    My only question is how the F did you make it 5 years?? It’s like 6 weeks and I’m going bat poop crazy — even with peddling a house and getting ready to move.
     
    Dave_in_AZ, dwells40 and InTooDeep Thank this.

    The whole fleet is SS? Saw Volvo’s and Shakers when I swung by a while ago — didn’t notice the SS.

    I had a couple rental properties to get ready for sale that took a couple years. Then did the world travel thing ( by the way Australia is fantastic). That's when I found out I only enjoyed fishing and hunting if it was an escape from work. When you can fish anytime you want boring. Still love hunting. Then took me awhile to figure out what I wanted to do for work. I'm a retired general contractor. Wasn't doing that again lol

    I've been told finding projects that you actually want to do helps.

    I'm starting to try to figure out that balance between My projects and paying side projects to fund My projects.
