Please forgive my lack of knowledge but is there a way to incorporate "run flat" technology into super singles and/or regular truck tires?

Hi- I think my eyes are going bad. I occasionally see trucks and trailers with single rear wheels instead of dual rear wheels (2 wheels on each...

Gas- Thanks for the info. How many miles do the trucks average? The tankers look nice and kind of familiar :biggrin_25525: [IMG] [IMG] [IMG]...
Thanks for the info. I wonder if a lot of the "older" fleet trucks just get scrapped or is there a big used truck market for them. The CF...
