    The OTR guys can probably chime in on this. As far as the sw regional fleet. I haven't encountered any customers that are too horrible. Except for overhead door in OKC, they take forever to unload. Other than that it ain't too bad some are better than others, but that's truckin

    I would prefer to do the southwest fleet I'm in Wisconsin though if I ran that for a month I wonder if they would be able to kick me back up to Wisconsin that's a question I'll have to ask operations. So you run from Nebraska to Cali and back every load on the southwest reginal ? That would be sweet to do that in winter then otr in the spring and summer.

    That just varies from load to load man, but 30k is not heavy at all, so to answer your question probably 80-85 percent at least, I can haul around 45k with my truck. Most are 30-40 k , some lighter some heavier. Seldom ever have any issues being overweight. I think all of our trucks have load gauges in the cab for your drives okay, so once you get used to that it gives you a pretty good idea of where you are at and if you need to scale it or not
