Howdy guys. Been out on the plant floor most of the morning overseeing a few internal plant projects to try and get them off the ground. It's a bit hazy and humid again. Figure with my luck the freshly detailed truck will get rained on tomorrow in route to Bloomsburg....ug.

Good afternoon PA, happy Hump Day! Going to be another long day, hopefully not as late as last night, though. Supposed to only run until 6. Yeah, sure, we'll see about that.

Howdy Travis and Pat.

Pat - you've been putting a lot of long nights in it seems...are you still starting early (like 7 or 8AM) then running all evening?

I come in at 8. We should be starting shifts next week, now that we have our new guy. He's a good guy, came down from one of our coal plants. Big goof ball, like me....LOL

lol, sounds like the two of you should hopefully get along then. And hopefully that helps cut the hours a little. I mean, OT helps pay for parts but gotta have time to do something with them...lol.

Off to the house myself, gotta wrap up a few loose ends for the show then it's eastbound and down in the AM...

Good Morning Everyone.

So i noticed this morning that most of the trucks in our parking lot seem to be registered at a lower class then i would expect them to be. noticed another f250 with a class 3, most 1/2 tons in my lot have no class sticker and a sierra 2500 HD regular cab was a class 1. the dealer automatically registered mine at a 4A class. i'm guessing because these arent commercial trucks most cops will ignore it if they see them towing or hauling anything?

Yep. Those guys are trying to save a few bucks each year on their registration. The cops will ignore it during a traffic stop unless you are just being a complete jerk. If you get into an accident while towing above your registered class, it could come back to bite you, but even that is a slim chance since it is just a personal declaration of how you will use your truck for taxing purposes & not really safety-related unless you try to exceed your truck's rated capabilities. My truck is 4A as well, but I lost my sticker when a baseball took my windshield. I don't tow for work purposes & rarely tow at all, so it's not worth it to me to order a new sticker.

Good morning, Gang! Happy Friday Eve!

i guess unless police start enforcing it some people will just do what ever is cheapest. the sierra 2500 with a class 1 sticker confused the hell out of me since its curb weight is like 5200 pounds to start.
