    You slide the rears towards the problem your over on your drives...you can be under 41 in any of those states not exactly at 41...slide 4 or 5 holes and you will scale fine unless I am not understanding something...

    Holy ####. You want to make money or not. Figure it out and go like hell. Not hitting the road because four hours isn't enough to time what a load of crap.

    Well I slide the tandems back two holes and reweigh this morning these are my weights steers 11640 drives 34940 tandems 34340 gross 80920
    So for all the ones saying slide them back and roll can stop telling me now as first assumption of the load being over weight that cant be fixed by tandems alone

    Well your first weight total was 79,229lbs .......

    Somehow you gained 1700lbs maybe you bought 250 gallons of fuel or have a foot of wet snow on the top of the trailer.

    You had your chance to get r done and you didn't .....

    Enjoy sitting making nothing......

    Now you claim you are 80920

    Difference of 1700 pounds
    You said you were at 5/8 fuel ... 1700 pounds is about 242 gallons
    You must have some big tanks....Deleted

    No need to insult me, I slide the tandems two holes towards the back of the trailer like some of you suggested. my fuel hasn't changed since yesterday and I did not get any fuel.

    1700 pounds should be easy to locate.

    Did you pick up a pair of 850 pound "ladies of the evening" for your trip to Milwaukee? You have to kick one out. Then you should be right on the money.
