    Got a document only check in Bokoshe, OK blitz week. Got the longest level 2 ever Friday in Buffalo, TX. Took over an hr, he actually jumped on trailer & walked down top of load looking for anything loose. All clean inspection

    Sturgis, SD and Broadus, MT both open today... I didn't think a scale would be open on Memorial Day.

    I didn't realize they did that. Half the boards on my trailer are held down by gravity. I guess I'll add that to the list. Or rather bump it closer to the top.

    Got picked out at the mega coop of of 94, in Rosecrans, for a tire that was down to 30/40 PSI.

    Out of service for it. Tire was still standing.
    Thing that really chapped my ###, the morning before this, I filled all the tires on the truck and trailer.

    Seems bringing the tire from 90-105 PSI, messed up an old patch job in this POS.

    I sincerely cannot believe I got an OOS, for a still standing tire. And the cop wouldn’t let me fill it with the shop compressor- TO DRIVE A HALF MILE DOWN TO THE LOVES.

    I had to call road service out…TO FILL A TIRE. THAT WAS NOT FLAT.

    Wow, is there a reason you weren't allowed to fill the tire yourself?

    When I checked the tire myself, and saw it was low- I looked to the north of the shop interior and saw an air compressor. I asked “can I use that” and he flatly replied no.

    I guess…whatever…end of the day- you can take the frontage road to blow the scale, there, and even though there’s a scale sign, it’s unmonitored. So. my small revenge. Lol.
