Yep you caught me in the middle of a tantrum. Everything was just out of reach didn't want it to shut off trying to get those extra fuel points lol.
lol... It happens to the best of us!!! Hope you've been having safe travels out there this winter!
20,000 for a single axle Shawn, or the truck tire rating is the max!
Keep those Entertaining videos coming !
Thank you, Steve!!! Will do! I've got three trips worth recorded and it always seems like something comes up when the camera's recording! 🤦♂️
@@WeekendTruckin I know the feeling! I am a transportation training coordinator for Amazon transportation, it's like your saying, " if it ain't something, it's something " 😂😂😂😂😂😂 LOL
Reading the EGT's (pyrometer) is one of the better tools to see if engine is overloaded...
True! I had that on the ford with my tuner. Thanks for the reminder, Lyle!
Steve Stock is spot on: 20K maximum allowable for a single axle per bridge formulas, which is recognized across all states. If you operate a semi with tandem axles, the maximum increases to 34K. Some get confused and think they can simply double the 20 and get 40 - but that will get you an overweight ticket in a heartbeat!
Outside of that, as Steve said, the overall weight on the axle must also NOT exceed the documented tire ratings stated on the tire. Your tires are those huge 22.5 grabbers - most likely going to allow a 20K max I would think. Next time you're rolling on the ground repairing a light, take a look on the sidewall and find that maximum tire rating. Multiply that by the number of tires on that axle (4 on rear, of course) - and that will be your maximum if under 20K.
Some guys running single-rear-wheel trucks pulling hotshot trailers get themselves into the mud by exceeding that tire capacity on the rear axle. Most load range E heavy duty truck tires on pickups have a load rating of 3600 LBS or so - multiply that by 2 and you are a shade over 7K. You'd better bet DOT officers can spot an overloaded rear axle a mile away, and when he hits that scale and shows anything over that on his rears, he's done.
Glad the truck is rolling good. I am noticing dealers are getting packed in too.... makes me wonder if 2021-2022 might have just been the pinnacle of the RV sales cycle, and it will be start getting rough for all of us going into 2023 and beyond..... but hey, "LET'S GO BRANDON"! Yeah...... HE did do that LOL.
Thanks for the awesome insight! I'm headed down to TX this week so I'll check it out and mention it in this vlog- I'm maybe three weeks behind right now, just a heads up!
I've wanted to reach out and try to find the industry sales norms over the past years to see the trends and how the plan, I mean, demic increased the rate of sales. I suspect we'd see a decrease that would go back to the historical data with maybe a slight dip lower at first because of the camper buying frenzy that's been happening for the past two years... 🤷♂️
Justin Barnes: Thank you for verifying about the 34k for Tandem axle. There's not too many Haul and Tows running tandem axles, that's why I did not mention that. I've been in the transportation field since 1980, so this is usually just second nature for me except for the updates about Hazmat which RV haulers do not have to worry about.
I was going to be doing RV transport this last fall, but then I got promoted, and got some Amazon stock for being promoted October 3rd to a Management position of Transportation training coordinator. I am keeping my options open by attempting to locate a truck for Haul and Tow part-time like Shawn did starting out. That way I can use my money made at my full-time job at Amazon, to pay all my bills at the house, and make all my payments on a truck and everything by the money I make on RV transport.
Glad your staying safe out there. Hope that water pump keeps ticking for you. Be safe on those highways.
Doug...From Gander? You're the man. Thanks again so much for the help that day!!!! Sorry to throw a water pump into chicken wings night!! That video should be out in two weeks!
Awesome video man preciate it. Looking forward to that next video on retirement.
Thanks, Jeff! It should be within the next week, maybe two at the latest!!!
I work for Cummins in Columbus where the engine was probably built. if you ever need any answers I could probably find it in our database
That's awesome, Caleb!! I'd love to know the capacity or upper limits of what the turbos are able to handle for the 8.3's! I don't know when or if this one's been replaced so I feel it's maybe an item I should keep my eye on and potentially look at getting a replacement one ready for some time down the road!
@@WeekendTruckin if you can get me your engine serial number I can look up all your specs and should be able to email it to you
Your heater fan is going bad and more than likely drawing to much amperage
This is a total newbie type question, but would the heater fan be the blower motor? That was the first thing I replaced when I started having the issues initially. That and a blend door actuator.
Thank you!!!
Let’s go! 😎🚜💨
👍💪
Reset ?? How long are you running at a time nowadays ??
Lol.... It was because of the breakdown and needing to play catch up. I wasn't able to let the truck sit for the 80ish hours it normally does each week, to get back to a normal weekly routine!
@@WeekendTruckin oh ok gotcha. Instead of chalking it up as a loss that week you stayed moving and powered through to meet your monthly goal !!
Theses dealers are getting full as crap. I just got back from Lakewood Colorado and I had to sit for 3 days waiting for them to take the units. I was told they had between 12 and 14 units a day coming in and they are also struggling with room in the lot to even put campers.
We had to park our out in the street. In the median.
wow, that's insane!!! Did your company try and compensate you for the down time?
@@WeekendTruckin they tried but forest river pointed their finger at the dealer and the dealer pointed their finger at forest river. I could have kept pushing the subject but I know damn well it would of been a waist of my time. My dispatcher was really apologetic and I know she was trying her best with all the phone calls I got
Focus?
only when it matters!
I am getting worried about the amount of hair on your scalp and face. Are things going okay? Or must we conduct an intervention? It is very “un-dude” of you
hahahahaha..... I'm definitely trying to grow out the beard and just playing around with the combover for now! Don't take my man card!!!
@@WeekendTruckin
Better make a run to Home Depot and rub some sawdust all over your body. Or perhaps axle grease.
😂
Bro get a better truck. It always has problems. That truck is a POS and the interior looks like a real sh!t hole.
Yet it grosses over 6 figures from three-four days a week running and only has a $380/month payment that’ll be paid off in a year if I don’t pay it off early… 🤔 let me think about that right quick
@@WeekendTruckin 6 figures!? $380 per month. I would keep it then. 😄
@@TheIncredibleHoosier It has it's headaches for sure and isn't the most comfortable nor best looking inside or out, but it's a pretty great money generating machine!! I put about 60-65% of it's gross in my pocket. With Brandon's fuel situation it's getting closer to 55% margins 🤦♂
I have so wanted to put "Undisclosed Location" in my KeepTrucking app but knowing DOT officers, they probably wouldn't find it as humorous as I do! ;)
hahahaha... You're probably right! Good thing it's been 14 days since that tirp! 😮💨
