    Our Life on the Road HOW MUCH WEIGHT CAN A STRAIGHT TRUCK HAUL

    You talk of a 23,000 axle registerd at 21,000. I’m guessing that your door jamb says 12,000 front and 21,000 rear. And I’d guess you plate at 33,000 lbs. I understand what you’re saying about the 12,000/13,200 axle. If you want or need a 13,200 axle, just buy a 13,200 axle. I’ve known...

    I was referring to a truck. I guess it applies to marriages too.

    I wonder if they haul some typical flatbed freight. Like racks of glass or granite. Maybe they just like there drivers.

    They haul the same kind of freight. They deliver a different type: undamaged freight. In straights air ride is requested for more fragile freight. Electronics. Art work.

    If you run team for Andy you have to, or get to, sleep with your head in the driver’s lap. Depending on how you feel about him.

    Big Truck ACCURATE EMPTY WEIGHT/TARE WEIGHT

    I know of a T600 reefer that went into Alberta empty with the lift axle up. They were over on the steer and instructed to return to the US. Driver said, let me drop my axle. Officer asked where’s your control ? Driver said next to the seat. Officer said that’s not allowed here. Turn around and...

    Big Truck ACCURATE EMPTY WEIGHT/TARE WEIGHT

    I would also look at the door jamb. If you have a 12,000 lb steer axle, it doesn’t matter what ply tires you put on, I believe you’re limited to 12,000 lbs. Also, don’t exceed your rear axle rating. If you have 12/34 you’re limited to 46k in MOST STATES even if you’re plated heavier. Now go...

    Big Truck How long out before home time?

    Great catch Terry. I was on the fence somewhat. Most people would have doubted the 3000 mile/ $4.00 Load. That’s not unusual once you get out of automotive. I applaud him for not getting too bizarre. I was thinking he was lucky to get off that easily from the cop and thinking he’d be broke...

    Big Truck How long out before home time?

    Oh well, just another typical week. Andy, ever been in prison? Enterprise shows their 26 ft trucks with a payload of 10,000. If you’re 50% over, you may be over 26,000 lbs. Get caught and you’ll be unloading that truck. Your driver in trouble for not having a CDL. Have an accident and...

    You may be right.... I don’t understand the motive. If l orchestrated this to draw attention to my company why wouldn’t I continue to keep the interest going ? I’d milk it for all it’s worth.

    Big Truck How long out before home time?

    Terry, I agree with your premise, but don’t understand the falsification of log. If I go off duty for 10 hours I can sleep in the front seat, on the roof or in a phone booth. Would I sleep in the front seat ? Only in a rare emergency. Nor would I want/require any driver working for me to do that.
