Am I Limiting My Marketability as an Owner Operator?

It was a 95. 550 Cat 280” wheelbase with an old Aero 1 sleeper on it. I sold it end of 2016.

 

200 pounds is just 30 gallons of fuel. As already told you can save a lot of weight with half empty tanks. No sense to change the sleeper for that.

Better call all good paying loads that over your weight limit and ask the exact weight. Often it's posted with max but not exact weight.

Usually good paying loads are not so heawy!

Also after some experience you or your Dispath will know if you loosing a lot of money because of the equipment weight.

 

I rarely fill my truck up with fuel.
While I do use both tanks, I only top off my drivers side 98% of the time. It will eventually equal out, and just keep running both tanks down. I don't understand carrying around a lot of unnecessary fuel. My new truck that is on order, it will have only a drivers side fuel tank, and only a passenger side exhaust stack.

 

I like big tanks, the more I can stay away from a truck stop the better.

 

I usually just hit unmanned card locks. Often the only person there is me. Enter my card, pin, and pump. They are everywhere.

 

Single pipe makes sense. KW just has a dummy pipe on the driver's side these days anyways.
