Good morning everyone.

Your weight ticket looks good Randy! I asked earlier but I don't think you understood, what are your trailer axles rated for?

Sounds like some fun times on the road Randy. Haha Glad you got to Texas safely.

Good early morning Jay! You were probably just so excited to get to work that you couldn't sleep.

Well it's closer than it seems, as there is pin weight on the truck lessening the camper weight some. Roughly 3700 lbs of pin weight based on truck weight.
