    Centane, were you a little nervous in snow season with that little loader so far back on the trailer...?

    I like my drives plenty heavy.... If you know what I mean....

    I don't know that it's been snowing too heavy up in Maine yet, and being that his trailer doesn't have abs, plus maybe he got a real gravy train rolling and jammed something up front. I always loaded spring ride trailers a bit heavier to the rear as well, smooth out the ride.
     
    Cetane+ Thanks this.

    Been busy as a mofo last couple weeks.

    Front of truck is no longer white. Krylon Satin black. Didnt realize how much sanding would be involved till I got started. Doing this way till I decide on a final color to paint the whole truck.

    This was probably easiest load I did this week. Paid $1500 to haul 6200lbs of styrofoam sheets 504 mi. I was passing everyone going up the hills. Even mistah bullholla was no match for the mighty Hurstmeistah heading up Parlays Summit.

    Now I'm on this thing. Minor OD,.. 9'2 said the confirmation sheet. Where do brokers get their info? Try,.. 11'10 wide and 14'2 tall.

    Duals off, tires drained of some air, truck it up. Depending where you are, 10' wide is a magic number for continuous travel.
