    I busted out laughing at that one, I’ll have to keep that in mind; I don’t have carpet, well I mean I did, but it was pretty dang disgusting if I dare say (rug)

    So I tried both XX's both are good. Can't say I like one over the other, though.

    Tonight on the dining menu is a cowboy ribeye and grilled corn on the cob.

    ummmmmm....fuelcomesoff steer and drive....mostly drive,but how is (basically) 35k (drives) and 39k (tail) even close to legal on a truck gross at 80k? 12/34/34 is the formula....with some play allowed on the steer up to approx 12.5. I was always a door slammer,but even I know he should not go!
    But he should get the name of the genious that toldhimtogo...be even better ifhe had the instruction on the qcomm or recorded if over the phone.

    It’s on the Qualcomm but I’m not a tattle tale; he said I “should be okay” but he didn’t demand that I go; I’ll take that he doesn’t know much about driving a truck and leave it at that

    Not to the LEO, the driver is the one that was running illegal,not the office dolt. LEO is wishing there was a citation he could write for STUPID...but he would easily run out of ink by the second day.

    I said he was legal on axles if he burned some fuel. A 10ft 2 in spread can run 20 oneach axle. If he was in motana he would be legal gross if drives was at 34k . No permit required, just depends what his inner bridge is

    If they said roll on your Qualcomm I’d roll. I’d take a screenshot of it first.


    Over weight tickets don’t go to the driver. They go to the MC number. However they can make you sit there till it’s corrected or permit issued.

    Back in the day, a HOT load paid a company hand double rate. My pay rate was $.44/mile and I would love those hot loads.

    In my company schmuck days, I would bootleg in a heartbeat but I most certainly would not for a normal rate. Like the working girls say, “Good service isn’t cheap and cheap service isn’t good.
    No, it wouldn’t. Once you sign for the load and leave the shipper, it’s your baby.
