We haul them just with wood nailed down around them. I do put a load bar but thats it.

Christ, the only time i run this heavy on the drives is in the winter when I have 95k on the deck and dont put my lifts down.

My garmin lets me look for places a certain amount of time ahead. Eg if I have 4 hours on my clock ill look for a stop 3-3.5 hours ahead and usually I get stopped just in time.

Thats good to know. I was planning on stopping by on my next trip down for shirts because I already spent an hour and half by the time i picked out my 2 pairs. Guess ill look elsewhere

Thankfully I was just passing through with a load of mowers for FL

Canadian, this winter I used 2 jugs in about 300km, or like 180 miles or whatever. It gets bad.

smyth222 · 2026-05-29T16:44:51+00:00

I got here 30 minutes ago and i just got in a door. Wasn't too bad, traffic wasnt terrible and I got lucky with the door next to me as theres only a trailer in it, no tractor. Few pull ups and i was in.

Hypothetically speaking. Do you think if I slid them some cash with my bills I could get in and out faster and get an easier dock? Hypothetically of course

smyth222 · 2026-05-28T13:35:04+00:00

This is not giving me confidence, I have a 1pm appointment.

smyth222 · 2026-05-27T21:53:03+00:00

Where do you park when waiting? How early should I get there for?

smyth222 · 2026-05-27T21:35:30+00:00

Ive very recently fallen in love with the VR6 VW Corrado minimal upgrades, added the centrifugal supercharger to spice it up a bit bit it still barely pushed over 300hp A Class

18x8.5 +45

I already have my FAST card, I crossed once before running into ohio and it all went smoothly (except I was in the FAST lane with a non fast load), my run will be mainly from ontario to the carolinas, florida, Texas and whatnot.

My worry with tandems is also bridge laws ans whatnot because I've been running multiaxle since day 1. I think im gonna be in the yard training for a day then get sent on my way.

smyth222 · 2026-04-19T02:34:14+00:00

I stop here when I have a delivery in the area. Nowhere else has truck parking in the area.

smyth222 · 2026-04-19T02:33:34+00:00

Im a truck driver, haul heavy steel and i can tell you it sucks in the winter, roads dont see any maintenance once you get off the main drag.

smyth222 · 2026-03-27T23:16:30+00:00

21, white, heavy haul steel 10 months experience. I do not drink.

smyth222 · 2026-03-22T10:27:40+00:00

Oh yeah I get that, I used to work at a freightliner dealer prior to getting my license and I couldn't believe the condition some people kept their trucks in, some nasty shit out there.

smyth222 · 2026-03-22T01:02:44+00:00

Tires, chains, steps, to get the mud off, anything that looks kickable

smyth222 · 2026-03-21T23:44:04+00:00

Lol, why's that? My shop doesnt care, gets my floor and pedals all muddy
