    New member here. I’ve read this whole thread from beginning to end. Very interesting, and a lot of good info.

    @Razororange, I saw you eastbound on I-24 just south of Nashville about a week and a half ago with one of these.
    It sure was neat to see someone I recognized from this thread!

    @FerrissWheel, any chance you delivered one of these to Boyd Cat in Bowling Green Ky yesterday afternoon (September 4)?
    I was at the Best One Tire getting my alignment checked/ and a blue 880 with a 2/2/2 went by with a 374 on it.

    Yep. Ran the second one down last week. Barely made it for delivery. Customer was closed on Friday until Tuesday this week. Made it there Thursday afternoon with my truck running a 25% derate because of some emissions problem.

    Had to deliver this little guy over in Michigan Monday morning before it.

    Made it home Saturday night with 2 hours left on my 70 and 3700miles in for the week.

    10-4!
    I thought about that turn…off camber, narrow where you’re turning in, etc.
    After they finished the alignment I swung back there, thought I might come say hi, but you were around back and I didn’t want to distract you. Maybe next time!
    Sounds like the next trip will take a minute.
    Whatcha taking to Cali?
     
    cke, FerrissWheel, Oxbow and 1 other person Thank this.
