    Ight.

    500 pounds over on my drives at half tanks. Should I go back to the shipper in the morning and have them move two pallets to the rear and lose a day.... or run it pretty much across the entire country?

    Feel like this shouldn't even be a question but I wanna ask. I've gotten away with 200 pounds before. Not sure if 500 is pushing it...

    I'd also like to add. It's a tarp load. Non sliding fifth wheel (gotta love that garbage).

    Don't know how I did it but I managed to kill the truck at a stop sign I had ran many times while I was having starter problems.... A f450 service truck was at the same stop and pull started me at 96k.....wouldn't take any cash...

    I'm thinking the same. Thought I could use the APU exemption but more than half the country doesn't even recognize it.
