    Hi everyone, just found this place, looks like a great source of info and entertainment. I live in west central IL and primarily haul grain for elevators and farmers locally. Also have a drop deck but don't run it much anymore. My dad and I each have a KW, mines a T-800, his is a T-600, both with 12.7 Detroits and many miles on them. Our family also farms and we have a heated shop to do a lot of our own maintenance.

    Thanks for the welcome everyone, I appreciate it.

    Lil Blue Pony, we have a couple Wilson hoppers, the ones with the roller traps that make the hopper doors really easy to open, not like the old steel rack and pinion doors that you have to have a 2 speed gearbox so you don't throw your back out opening them!
