    It is an interesting sight to see when a tank gets over loaded. Watched milk come shooting out of the top cuz the loader wasn’t paying attention.

    Did the name of the customer begin with "J" and end with "I"?

    I've never had cheap no name tires fitted to the tractor, but I have noticed that drives wear quickly. I was told it is due to the axles Paccar uses flexing when loaded which causes uneven wear.

    Steer tires are notorious for cupping also. Nothing to do with incorrect tire pressure or alignment, just the nature of the beast according to the tire shop in WH.

    Submit the receipt and you will be reimbursed no questions asked.

    I don't know who told you that you shouldn't have needed to pay the reenter fee because it is entirely up to the customs officer if they collect it or not. I mean technically they are supposed to collect it but some don't bother.

    I swear they hang out right outside the door just waiting for you to open it so they can get in. Little do they know I keep my cab quite cold which makes them lethargic once they get inside and once they get all sleepy and slow to react it's all over for them.

    I don't play that scale dodging game, company pays the overweight tickets and they don't show up on my license so roll right on through.

    I’m chuckling at this. On a serious note, I tried spraying the outside of the door cracks and around the window with a can of Off repellent years ago when I hauled out of the Clovis area quite a bit. It worked, but it eventually wears off. You might try it right before arriving at the shipper @jarhead0311
