Force isn't measured in psi.
you weigh twice as much as your suv, sitting that's twice as much force being put down. While the weight distributes, you're not that much bigger than an suv. So you're putting more force into a not much bigger area. Meaning the pavement isn't distributing the wrought over as big of an area, making you more damaging than a car
You can't park here!

LMAO. Troll on.

Force (weight) has nothing to do with it. The PSI is what make you sink.
You are so wrong I am wasting my time. But as long as you think you are right that's all that matters. Don't let facts get the the way.
Just a question for you. Why do farmers put duals on tractors? For the tax deduction? -
Weight distributionv to your tires isn't the same as to the ground. You need duals in an overhead load to not blow the tire. The force you put on the road is going to be the full force of the truck over the area, not location of the tires
-
Now wait a minute. Above you said that tires didn't matter. So which is it?
Noooooo, that is because the trucks that made those tracks were loaded.
Ahhhh, how does that work exactly? Please show your calculations.
I hate to call BS on you again (not really) but they are the same on planet earth my friend (unless you're at the bottom of a lake). Force due to gravity and weight are the same thing. -
You have my full attention now LOL. I can't weight (pun intended).
-
Your ties are designed to distribute the weight evenly across the trick. They do this through your tire pressure. Where your toe contacts the road, the weight if that tire is pushing down right there. The farther that weight is spread, the lighter it pushes on the road. When is relatively close, like in the car of trucks, those "words"overlap causing a stronger downforce on the road
-
Are you saying that the overall length and width of the truck from door to door and bumper to bumper is the area of asphalt that takes the load? In other words, a 400 lb Prime driver on a unicycle does less damage to the asphalt than the same 400 lb Prime driver on a tricycle?
That is, well..... a different take on physics. If you were to prove that theory, I think you might be up for the Nobel prize. -
So.... I could let the air out of all my tires, maybe leave in 10psi and be ok? Good thing I have an air hose to refill them once I leave the lot.
I'm the best trip planner there ever was, really. But sometimes a surprise 6-7 hour unload will put me over my 14. But, I have a cool full name, and I love hearing the Quallcomm say it and tell me that I'm out of hours. Oddly, I still allow myself to safe haven to a parking spot. -
OK. I think you're drunk so I'm gonna give you a break. Buh Bye.
