    I have the same kind of load right now. 6 totes in the nose and 5 more over the trailer tandems. MI to Tulsa. Second time in two weeks. 1955 miles round trip. Did it in three days the first time. Got 673 miles in today. Good start to this trip.

    Tomorrow I get back in the truck after six days off.

    I hope I remember how to truck.

    Those totes are what I plan in using to build an aquaponics system after we move to Florida.

    Fresh Fish and Veggies too.

    Why load them in a line single file like that as opposed to 2-across in the middle with a load bar on each end?

    Just curious...

    I would probably err on the side of "cooler".
