What if it Snows?

Awesome place!!!

 

Since I have two fifth wheels to clean I'm pretty sure that makes me a double ST because more... Also breaking down the set at the fuel island to clean the dolly with the squeegee will be a great way to spend an hour. In all honesty how do these dudes sit around a hour? Maybe all on their 10? I honestly have 0 time to f off today once I start rolling, I gotta make it to Miami tonight and on my way down I'm going to hit rush hour traffic on 75 thru Tampa so I will lose an hour there. Then the goal is to get back up to Tampa tonight and go home. That is about 10-10.5 hours behind the wheel if it all works out well. So 10 behind the wheel, probably 30mns for paperwork and guard shack stuff, 1 hour messing with the doubles and bumping docks with the pups, 30 minute break, 30mns to fuel when I start the day. It's not all in order but I have an hour to a hour and a half to mess with.

 

I don't think I even have any good pics in my phone of my house. Here is a bad one showing half of the house.

 

I really don't have an answer for you...it is weird.
But since seeing the video someone posted here on ttr of an idiot washing his 5th wheel with the squeegee, nothing surprises me anymore.

 

One would hope that as a trainer, you are providing your trainees with this valuable knowledge.

 

When you it the ramp to the truckstop make sure you have the jake on so, everyone can hear you 8 inch straight stacks. Thats cool.

 

Okay this is embarrassing but I'mma say it anyway.
I want to hit the scale at the truck stop today because I am curious as to how much a trailer full of cans of Sprite weighs and how much a trailer full of containers of syrup weigh. #### is heavy pushing it off and on with a pallet jack, I just want to put a number to it. Here's the embarrassing part. I don't know what my axle weights are supposed to be. Single screw truck two single axle pups and a dolly. That's kind of sad lol, I just lost my double ST status, having two fifth wheels to clean at the fuel island can't make up for that

 

20 K per single axle. Nationally, 34K per tandem, 12 K steer. Florida has higher tandem limits, IIRC, and I don't know about FL steer limits. Many states are higher based on front axle rating and tire rating (or tire width).

 

I always went off 12 34 34 with a normal set up but this is new to me. I think Florida is 14k steer but I'm not sure because I've never been in a position where even 12k was an issue. Thanks for the info!

 

Looks like it needs more bacon
