    Truck rides so nice now with 2 new steers. Tire tech looked at me like I was crazy when I asked if he was going to balance the tires when he placed them next to the truck right after mounting to the rims. He goes but you have the centrimatics. I said yes I do and they compliment the balanced tire quite nicely and makes sure the tire stays balanced as it wears, so, please balance the tire before you put them back on my truck. He said no problem and balanced them before putting them on.

    Just another reason to keep an eye on the person working on your truck.

    Not a site I’m used to seeing showing up to Wal Mart. I’m the very first outside carrier to show up for the unloading day.

    Naw....The New Caney, Texas Wal-Mart unloads in the evenings. Last trucks usually leaving around 1am or later.

    IMG_20180531_134627_1.jpg So personal opinion would you take this route..... Or would you rather 15 to Vegas and then down through Kingman and Wickenburg...

    Funny thing is mileage this route matches exactly pay miles.

    I think I remember taking that southern straight route with Werner years ago and remembering it was pretty #### steep. Or maybe I'm thinking of the route going towards Colorado....

    I've been the route on your GPS. Not exactly the most mpg friendly route. The path of least resistance is through Vegas
     
    Kamkor Thanks this.
