    Did not say that. 400 will get you a piece of paper. Less is up to dot.

    Fuel up before water/beer/glass/dog food loads. Make them rework the load if you're heavy. Some shippers are dicks.
    Conway was bad for extra weight in the tail on mixed loads between terminals.They'd get to the end of the shift and shove an extra pallet in. In Cali you cant just drive around with the tandems back. Have to tell them to take something off. Driver is responsible. Next time at joplin, fuel up and go over the scale bobtail and with an mt. Write it down for reference. You can usually find the trailer tare weight on the manufacturers plate.

    Anyone use the weight my truck app? I imagine it can be used if it still gives us a digital receipt for reimbursement right?
