You don't think 30+ psi is pushing it?

Oh yea, and I wasn’t driving for fuel mileage. Wasn’t being stupid but I was just driving. Everyone is happy. I’d like a little more power in all honesty, however it really doesn’t pull bad. I’ll take it.

Are those white lights legal?
Add me onto the list of hating the headlights. Looks like they were ripped from a new car and glued into side mirrors.

Here's what I'm doing lately in the cold cold north. It's colder than a *****s heart up here. Causing me pain in my hip which causes me to drive in the style of jfaulkner(complete assholes driving). Doing 67 gotta get this **** delivered. I can do 3800 miles in 6 days, reset the 7th at home and do it all over again. On ELD to boot! Not bad considering the stuff pulls hard and weighs 45k all the time.

Big MOAAARRRR BSFC project coming up soon.Click the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.

I'm on 90 going west. The wind is blowing but on a more normal load I would be doing 5.5. It will improve once I turn south. The wind really isn't THAT badClick the image to open in full size.Click the image to open in full size.

Those wheels will catch air and make it feel bigger... Could trap it... Would fix the wind drag issue

Can be....
I have 15*15' felt pads that I lay on cargo to protect the tarps..

Boss Im leased to was talking about what my opinion was of a conastoga or quick draw setup for a GN.. 10k for basic 20-30k for nicer side of the middle of the road one...on top of trailer cost Told him unless you can get a nice premium and have enough work for it....it's not worth it...
Plus it would limit normal flat deck stuff I haul as well... Definetly don't want to be dragging something that's 9'-13'6 tall all the time deck on my GN is 36"..


Definetly nice for some loads... But would cut out alot of other stuff I haul

Yeah this stuff is dedicated but seasonal. Doing a normal tarp job takes too long and the customer wants their stuff now right now and yesterday. The return wheels usually half of them are sharp as a knife they're so worn out.

You understand all permit loads even if just for overweight have a max speed limit of 55mph, get caught exceeding that and the permit can be torn up on the spot. So claiming he drives like an asshole when you have no clue just makes you look like even more of a dumb azz.
