    Well this was fun. Truck got one hell of a workout on this goat trail. Dont let the picture fool you. That crap was soft and rutted where it wasnt. my truck was slideing all over the place or trying to cave my skull in with the roof even at 10 MPH.

    Ah! I was way off. I did a couple rounds from new market to grand island, glass back from Nebraska. Then I did salt to our yard then I helped the landscaping side Friday haul them rock to a lot they’re doing in the industrial park in Ottawa. I did 8 loads, didn’t start til 9 and was home by 1 it was awesome. Clint was telling me about an owner op that got a new truck and is just killing it on tonnage. He was there when I was shootin the #### in the office Friday. It’s a Millis truck and his empty weight is like 29,500. That’s exactly 2 tons less than what I tare at. That would add up throughout the year!

    Lol i wish my rig was that light. I tare at 35200 with half fuel.

    And thats AFTER i took off almost 2000 pounds of crap i didnt need like the headache rack and reinforcments for super heavy haul.

    That said with trump im im hopeing they back off the emissions #### and i can LEAGALLY cut off all this emissions #### without months and 10s of thousands in red tape. If my green truck is any indication that should drop off 2-3000 pounds.

    Course it doesnt help my trailer is heavy as ####. Steve doesnt believe me but pauls trailer is almost 16k and i have the bobtail tare to prove it.

    Hopefully I get some of those. Clint was saying they have clay and Buildex going to El Paso. I haven’t been down there in a long time. I’m ready to breakout of the Nebraska loop!
