    I kind of like the simple gray and white scheme. To me says, "I'm here to get stuff done, no playing around". On the other hand orange and black graphics do look nice on a white background ! Haha.

    Yes it was lbs they were 13000kg each two would of been just a little heavy for some of the trucks. Our limit on 3 axle trailers and 3 axle trucks is 42500kg

    I was sent the typical blue star and lettering but I wasn't putting that on my truck. I went and had the silver ones made, looks much better then then the blue ones they give you, at least on this truck. Other trucks it matches.

    I like the way it looks now. I'm not a volvo fan but that looks to be in pretty nice shape for the year. I see you are pulling a steel trailer. Are you planning to switch to alum? Best of luck, I always enjoyed following your TMC escapades

    I guess I'll just say this. I only met Milski once briefly. But I do think I am a pretty good judge of character. He is an impressive young man and I fully expect him to do very well with Landstar or whatever else he decides to do. It does take a minute to figure things out though.

    Smacked a bat with my mirror. Found him the next morning as I was doing my pre trip and washing the windows.

    See that's what happens when you drive at night and go faster than the bat's radar system can pick you up...

    Yeah you can run a little heavier. I guess the difference is that we have a drop axle on our trucks and with a 3 axle trailer we can gross 96k lbs. Here is a little load that we delivered a few weeks ago..... 10' by 11' by 6' boxes.

    Boxes were about the same weight of that pipe you hauled.
