Yeah this whole load is a whopping 4200 lbs. And since its maybe 7.5', once my truck breaks the air nothing left but a little drag at the end. Which by the way is why the back is secured like this...

It's so light, your drag will suck that last pallet right off the deck.
As far as mpg, well I came out at 8.2 rolling down 77 from Akron to Wythville today. Now mind that's cruisin easy around 67-68 mph most of the time.
Where is everyone #5

Didn't do any of those today. Still working on shop stuff with the city, moving dirt (from the comfort of a climate controlled cab with a good radio) and sitting on the porch watching the world go by.
I did just polish off another bag of frozen grapes though.

All of us talking about eating and getting healthy...my brother is 8 years older than me. Mom calls a couple hours ago and says he's acting goofy. Takes him to the hospital and find out he's had a stroke at 56 years old!! I guess it can happen anytime! Y'all take care of y'all's self!!

I'm so sorry to hear that. Really hope they got him to the hospital in time.
-
I'm glad that he wasn't alone and got to the hospital. I hope they can get him taken care of and he can recover well.

Hope everything is ok!
