This trip, Cheyenne to Mackinac bridge, loaded son and family in the gutted camper and box, drove to Ashville NC, on my way back to Michigan, then to Wyoming.

Loaded weight. From Mi to NC. Am I heavy?

Unload.
Am I reading that wrong or are those weights backwards? Shouldn't your drive axle be the heavier axle?

I parked the complete truck on the steer scale (first scale) and the trailer on the second scale which is the drive scale.

Looking good! Just like mine!
Do you know what the width is of the car? I'm trying to find the measures of the truck. My wheelbase is 139.
Truck is o it's way so I can't measure....
Thank you!

Had to put old steelies on front of the 150 as the tires bleed down to fast.

Finally figured out why the 250 wouldn't start. Thought i had a bad pickup but seems there was just some crusty interference not allowing signal to get through.
