    Just enough to look kinda cool.
    Went paving today and couldn’t take my new truck because of the plastic liner, so took one of the open trucks and the box was dead flat… so drug it into the truck with some help and got it dumped out. Ran over to the shop (3 minutes away) and swapped into my old sterling and back at it. Paving guys are already trying to get me to jump jobs again… and I was up late on an RV wreck with the tow company. Ran the skid steer for about 4 hours just ripping the camper apart and stuffing it into a dump trailer so I’m tired and it’s guna be a long day.

    I've driven an F250 with a 300gal water tank before. It was fun sitting at stop lights getting rocked like you were in a boat:rofl:

    I did tanker for awhile, fuel, baffled tanker so there was nut much sloshing. But keep in mind it's very heavy and top heavy as well. Slow down in the turns.

    Remember to talk with the tester helps take the nerves away. And if they like you they’ll let some more stuff slid if you do happen to miss something.
